Abstract. The shared-cache contention on Chip Multiprocessors causes performance degradation to applications and hurts system fairness. Many previously proposed solutions schedule ...
The PARSEC benchmark suite was recently released and has been adopted by a significant number of users within a short amount of time. This new collection of workloads is not yet ...
With the advent of chip multiprocessors, exploiting intra-transaction parallelism is an attractive way of improving transaction performance. However, exploiting intra-transaction ...

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...
This paper proposes a new hardware technique for using one core of a CMP to prefetch data for a thread running on another core. Our approach simply executes a copy of all non-cont...
