Excerpt from Synchronization Costs on Multiprocessors, Vol. 98 Various types of processor synchronization are introduced and analyzed with regard to execution time and waiting time. It is shown that while barrier synchronization requires a large execution time on systems with many processors, other less restrictive forms of synchronization do not have this drawback. It is also shown that for most reasonable distributions of processor times, a relatively small amount of time is Spent waiting at synchronization points. The ...

Excerpt from Synchronization Costs on Multiprocessors, Vol. 98 Various types of processor synchronization are introduced and analyzed with regard to execution time and waiting time. It is shown that while barrier synchronization requires a large execution time on systems with many processors, other less restrictive forms of synchronization do not have this drawback. It is also shown that for most reasonable distributions of processor times, a relatively small amount of time is Spent waiting at synchronization points. The conclusion is that if barriers can be replaced by the less restrictive synchronization forms, then, for problems with appropriate size granularity, the synchronization costs on most multiprocessors will be small.
