Abstract

A consistency condition for distributed shared memory is fast if it has a fast implementation in which the execution time of every operation is significantly faster than the network delay. These conditions include Pipelined RAM, weak consistency, causal memory, and one interpretation of processor consistency. It is shown that if a condition is fast then it does not support non-centralized solutions for mutual exclusion.
