Node Summit 2017 – SHARED-MEMORY PARALLELISM IN NODE.JS – Jace Mogill

Extended Memory Semantics (EMS) is a software implementation of the parallel programming and execution model built into the hardware of some Cray supercomputers. EMS targets problems too large for a single core but not big enough for a scalable cluster, exploiting the advantages of large memory multi-core servers. EMS.js is a native NPM module that provides OpenMP-like primitives for parallel programming, fine-grained synchronization of data access, persistence, and data sharing with Python and C/C++.
