abstract= "In recent years there has been a trend towards using
standard workstation components to construct parallel
computers, due to the enourmous costs involved in designing
and manufacturing special-purpose hardware. In particular we
can expect to see a large population of SMP clusters
emerging in the next few years. These are local-area
networks of workstations, each containing around four
parallel processors with a single shared memory.
To use
such machines effectively will be a major headache for
programmers and compiler-writers. Here we consider how
well-suited the BSP model might be for these two-tier
architectures, and whether it would be useful to extend the
model to allow for non-uniform communication behaviour. "
