Are there any existing libraries/frameworks/products for a distributed shared memory system implemented in .NET, or easily accessible from .NET clients?
Googling gives some links to academic papers, but I couldn't find any real implementations.
Note: I am most interested in something that runs on a LAN, not in "cloud".

DSM is a mechanism of allowing user processes to access shared data without using inter-process communications. In DSM every node has its own memory and provides memory read and write services and it provides consistency protocols.
Shared memory allows multiple processing elements to share the same location in memory (that is to see each others reads and writes) without any other special directives, while distributed memory requires explicit commands to transfer data from one processing element to another.
Distributed memory refers to a computing system in which each processor has its memory. Computational tasks efficiently operate with local data, but when remote data is required, the task must communicate (using explicit messages) with remote processors to transfer data.
Maybe AppFabric aka Velocity?
A new Microsoft project, code-named Velocity, provides a distributed, in-memory cache. Velocity enables you to create scalable, available, high-performance applications by exposing a unified view of distributed memory for client application consumption.
