Memory Model = Instruction Reordering + Store Atomicity
We present a novel framework for defining memory models in terms of two properties: thread-local Instruction Reordering axioms and Store Atomicity, which describes inter-thread c...

Flexible Snooping: Adaptive Forwarding and Filtering of Snoops in Embedded-Ring Multiprocessors
A simple and low-cost approach to supporting snoopy cache coherence is to logically embed a unidirectional ring in the network of a multiprocessor, and use it to transfer snoop me...
