In this paper, we propose a novel hardware caching technique, called switch directory, to reduce the communication latency in CC-NUMA multiprocessors. The main idea is to implemen...
Recent research addressed the importance of optimizing L2 cache utilization in the design of main memory indexes and proposed the so-called cache-conscious indexes such as the CSB...
