Tightening the Bounds on Feasible Preemption Points
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...

An Adaptive Cache Coherence Protocol Optimized for Migratory Sharing
Parallel programs that use critical sections and are executed on a shared-memory multiprocessor with a writeinvalidate protocol result in invalidation actions that could be elimin...

Understanding the backward slices of performance degrading instructions
For many applications, branch mispredictions and cache misses limit a processor’s performance to a level well below its peak instruction throughput. A small fraction of static i...

Instruction cache locking using temporal reuse profile
The performance of most embedded systems is critically dependent on the average memory access latency. Improving the cache hit rate can have significant positive impact on the per...

A Model for the Effect of Caching on Algorithmic Efficiency in Radix based Sorting
— This paper demonstrates that the algorithmic performance of end user programs may be greatly affected by the two or three level caching scheme of the processor, and we introduc...
