An ACL2 Proof of Write Invalidate Cache Coherence
As a pedagogical exercise in ACL2, we formalize and prove the correctness of a write invalidate cache scheme. In our formalization, an arbitrary number of processors, each with its...

Reducing Memory and Traffic Requirements for Scalable Directory-Based Cache Coherence Schemes
As multiprocessors are scaled beyond single bus systems, there is renewed interest in directory-based cache coherence schemes. These schemes rely on a directory to keep track of a...

Coherence decoupling: making use of incoherence
This paper explores a new technique called coherence decoupling, which breaks a traditional cache coherence protocol into two protocols: a Speculative Cache Lookup (SCL) protocol ...

A tuneable software cache coherence protocol for heterogeneous MPSoCs
In a multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) private caches introduce the cache coherence problem. Here, we target at heterogeneous MPSoCs with a network-on-chip (NoC). Existing har...

SMT-Directory: Efficient Load-Load Ordering for SMT
Memory models like SC, TSO, and PC enforce load-load ordering, requiring that loads from any single thread appear to occur in program order to all other threads. Out-of-order execu...
