A Power-Aware Prediction-Based Cache Coherence Protocol for Chip Multiprocessors
Snoopy cache coherence protocols broadcast requests to all nodes, reducing the latency of cache to cache transfer misses at the expense of increasing interconnect power. We propos...

The Synonym Lookaside Buffer: A Solution to the Synonym Problem in Virtual Caches
To support dynamic address translation in today's microprocessors, the first-level cache is accessed in parallel with a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). However, this curre...

Memory Forwarding: Enabling Aggressive Layout Optimizations by Guaranteeing the Safety of Data Relocation
By optimizing data layout at run-time, we can potentially enhance the performance of caches by actively creating spatial locality, facilitating prefetching, and avoiding cache con...

Using supplier locality in power-aware interconnects and caches in chip multiprocessors
Conventional snoopy-based chip multiprocessors take an aggressive approach broadcasting snoop requests to all nodes. In addition each node checks all received requests. This appro...
