Abstract
Distributed shared memory systems and processes that can connect into each node of a computer network to encapsulate the memory management operations of the connected nodes and to provide thereby an abstraction of a shared virtual memory that can span across each node of the network and that optionally spans across each memory device connected to the computer network. Accordingly, each node on the network having the distributed shared memory system of the invention can access the shared memory.
