	Abstract = {This article advocates the use of new architectural features commonly
found in many-cores to replace the machine model underlying Unix-like
operating systems. We present a general Abstract Many-core Machine Model
(AM3), a proof-of-concept implementation and first evaluation results in
the context of an emerging many-core, hardware multi-threaded
architecture without support for interrupts. Our proposed approach makes
it possible to reuse off-the-shelf multithreaded/multiprocess software
on massively parallel architectures, without need to change code to use
custom programming models like CUDA or OpenCL. Benefits include higher
hardware utilization, higher performance and higher energy efficiency
for workloads common to general-purpose platforms, such as in
datacenters and Clouds. The benefits also include simpler software
control over the hardware platform, an enabling factor for the further
evolution of parallel programming languages.},
