The growing influence of wire delay in cache design has meant that access latencies to last-level cache banks are no longer constant. Non-Uniform Cache Architectures (NUCAs) have ...
This paper investigates helper threads that improve performance by prefetching data on behalf of an application’s main thread. The focus is data prefetch helper threads that lac...
Large-grain synchronous dataflow graphs or multi-rate graphs have the distinct feature that the nodes of the dataflow graph fire at different rates. Such multi-rate large-grain dat...

― Phase Change Memory (PCM) is one of the most promising technologies among emerging non-volatile memories. PCM stores data in crystalline and amorphous phases of the GST materia...
A concurrent cache design is presented which allows cached data to be spread across a cluster of computers. The implementation s persistent storage from cache storage and abstract...
