| 6 | | For a multi-threaded application, the number of threads can be very large, and the threads of a given process can be distributed on all cores available in the shared memory architecture, for maximal parallelism. Therefore A single process can spread on all clusters. To avoid contention, the process descriptor of a P process, and the associated structures, such as the list of registered vsegs ('''VSL'''), the generic page table ('''GPT'''), or the file descriptors table ('''FDT''') are (partially) replicated in all clusters containing at least one thread of P. |
