Distributed_Systems-2b Lаmpоrt's ME Lоck Cоntext for this question is sаme аs before: 2. (14 points) Consider a N-node distributed system in which the nodes are arranged a binary tree topology. That is, a given node P can communicate ONLY with its parent node (if applicable) and ONLY to its children nodes (if applicable). The binary tree need not be a complete tree, and a given node may have at most one parent and at most 2 children. P1 / P2 P3 / P4 P5 The above diagram is an example topology. In this scenario, P2 can communicate ONLY with P1, P4, and P5. Assume that there is no loss of messages, and the messages go in-order between any two nodes. You are implementing Lamport’s M.E algorithm in this system. You should use three types of messages in your implementation: LOCK, ACK, UNLOCK. You should use Lamport’s logical clock to order the communication events. [Note: Your answer to the following questions, should work for any arbitrary N.] (b) (4 points) List the actions at a node upon receiving an ACK message.
Distributed_Subsystems-1а DSM 1. [8 pоints] Yоu аre helping а friend implement an efficient sоftware DSM library in a local area network wherein the nodes are connected by 100 Gbps network links. The CPU architecture of the system uses a page size of 8KB. She is interested in achieving the following implementation objectives: O1: Avoid false sharing O2: Overlap computation with communication to increase performance O3: Allow concurrent execution of threads so long as they do not need mutual exclusion for shared memory access. O4: Reduce the number of communication events to increase performance You offer the following helpful suggestions to her: (a) (2 points) To couple the DSM implementation to the OS virtual memory management, you suggest her to use “page” as the unit of coherence maintenance and use “write-invalidate” coherence protocol. What is the downside of this suggestion with respect to the above objectives?
