The major chip manufacturers have all introduced chip multiprocessing (CMP) and simultaneous multithreading (SMT) technology into their processing units. As a result, even low-end...
Resource sharing can cause unfair and unpredictable performance of concurrently executing applications in Chip-Multiprocessors (CMP). The shared last-level cache is one of the mos...
In LAPACK many matrix operations are cast as block algorithms which iteratively process a panel using an unblocked algorithm and then update a remainder matrix using the high perf...
Abstract— We developed an automated environment to measure the memory access behavior of applications on high performance clusters. Code optimization for processor caches is cruc...
Replacement policy, one of the key factors determining the effectiveness of a cache, becomes even more important with latest technological trends toward highly associative caches....
