| Summary: | As parallel machines grow in scale and complexity, latency tolerance of synchronization faults and remote memory accesses becomes increasingly important. One method for tolerating this by multithreading the processor and rapidly context switching between these threads. Fast context switching is most effective when the latencies being tolerated are short compared to the total run lengths of all the resident threads. |
