Really only need to cite this one. This is the same basic idea as dewitt:gamma2, but after they ported the system from the VAXen to an iPSC/2. Speedup results good. Question: how about comparing it to a single-processor, single-disk system with increasing disk bandwidth? That is, how much of their speedup comes from the increasing disk bandwidth, and how much from the actual use of parallelism?} }
