Compositional Memory Systems for Multimedia Communicating Tasks
Conventional cache models are not suited for real-time parallel processing because tasks may flush each other’s data out of the cache in an unpredictable manner. In this way th...

A compiler-directed data prefetching scheme for chip multiprocessors
Data prefetching has been widely used in the past as a technique for hiding memory access latencies. However, data prefetching in multi-threaded applications running on chip multi...

A Mechanism for Speculative Memory Accesses Following Synchronizing Operations
In order to reduce the overhead of synchronizing operations of shared memory multiprocessors, this paper proposes a mechanism, named specMEM, to execute memory accesses following ...

A reconfigurable cache memory with heterogeneous banks
Abstract— The optimal size of a large on-chip cache can be different for different programs: at some point, the reduction of cache misses achieved when increasing cache size hits...

The Synonym Lookaside Buffer: A Solution to the Synonym Problem in Virtual Caches
To support dynamic address translation in today's microprocessors, the first-level cache is accessed in parallel with a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). However, this curre...
