Today, mobile smartphones are expected to be able to run the same complex, memory-intensive applications that were originally designed and coded for general-purpose processors. Ho...
- Among all software cache coherence strategaes, the ones that are based on the concept of tamestamps show the greatest potentaal an terms of cache performance. The early tamestamp...
Dynamically tagged directories are memory-efficient mechanisms for maintaining cache coherence in sharedmemory multiprocessors. These directories use specialpurpose caches of poin...
—We evaluate three extensions to directory-based cache coherence protocols in shared-memory multiprocessors. These extensions are aimed at reducing the penalties associated with ...
Modern systems are able to put two or more processors on the same die (Chip Multiprocessors, CMP), each with its private caches, while the last level caches can be either private ...
