Abstract—This paper proposes a new software-oriented approach for managing the distributed shared L2 caches of a chip multiprocessor (CMP) for latency-oriented multithreaded appl...
As technology scales down at an exponential rate, leakage power is fast becoming the dominant component of the total power budget. A large share of the total leakage power is diss...
Modern single and multi-processor computer systems incorporate, either directly or through a LAN, a number of storage devices with diverse performance characteristics. These stora...
Mobile location-dependent information services (LDISs) have become increasingly popular in recent years. However, data caching strategies for LDISs have thus far received little at...
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...
