SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Multiple processor systems are an important class of parallel systems. These systems are called uniform memory access (UMA) multiprocessors because they provide uniform access of memory to all pro- cessors. Such systems also provide global, shared memory like the UMA systems.
