In this paper we present an exhaustive evaluation of the memory subsystem in a chip-multiprocessor (CMP) architecture composed of 16 cores. The characterization is performed making...
Future CMPs will combine many simple cores with deep cache hierarchies. With more cores, cache resources per core are fewer, and must be shared carefully to avoid poor utilization...

In response to the constant increase in wire delays, Non-Uniform Cache Architecture (NUCA) has been introduced as an effective memory model for dealing with growing memory latenci...
Although directory-based cache coherence protocols are the best choice when designing chip multiprocessor architectures (CMPs) with tens of processor cores on chip, the memory ove...
Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) is considered to be a promising future memory technology due to its low leakage power, high density and fast read speed. The heterogeneous int...
