Interactive Visualization for Memory Reference Traces
We present the Memory Trace Visualizer (MTV), a tool that provides interactive visualization and analysis of the sequence of memory operations performed by a program as it runs. A...

Bounding Preemption Delay within Data Cache Reference Patterns for Real-Time Tasks
Caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures to hide, in part, the increasing gap between processor speed and memory access times. While the effect of caches on timi...

Reducing memory reference energy with opportunistic virtual caching
Most modern cores perform a highly-associative translation look aside buffer (TLB) lookup on every memory access. These designs often hide the TLB lookup latency by overlapping it...

An Adaptive Cache Coherence Protocol Optimized for Producer-Consumer Sharing
Shared memory multiprocessors play an increasingly important role in enterprise and scientific computing facilities. Remote misses limit the performance of shared memory applicat...

Using Prediction to Accelerate Coherence Protocols
Most large shared-memory multiprocessors use directory protocols to keep per-processor caches coherent. Some memory references in such systems, however, suffer long latencies for ...
