Bus-based shared memory multiprocessors with private caches and snooping write-invalidate cache coherence protocols are dominant form of small- to medium-scale parallel machines t...
The growing speed gap between memory and processor makes an efficient use of the cache ever more important to reach high performance. One of the most important ways to improve cac...
—The potential for destructive interference between running processes is increased as Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) share more on-chip resources. We believe that understanding the ...
Software-controlled data prefetching is a promising technique for improving the performance of the memory subsystem to match today's high-performance processors. While prefet...
