Abstracts
The talk will cover following topics:
Memory architecture - CPU/Memory gap, memory hierarchy, multiprocessor cache, cache line contentions and its effects on scaling
Multiprocessor RW Lock - Fast reader/writer lock that scales linearly for read
0-bit spin lock - Lock that effectively uses no memory, allowing for cheap fine grained locking.
