The Effect of Instruction Set Complexity on Program Size and Memory Performance
One potentialdisadvantage of a machine with a reduced instruction. set is that object programs may be substantially larger than those for a machine with a richer, more complex ins...

A system-on-a-chip lock cache with task preemption support
Intertask/interprocess synchronization overheads may be significant in a multiprocessor-shared memory System-on-a-Chip implementation. These overheads are observed in terms of loc...

The Detection and Elimination of Useless Misses in Multiprocessors
In this paper we introduce a classification of misses in shared-memory multiprocessors based on inter processor communication. We identify the set of essential misses, i.e., the s...

Cascaded Execution: Speeding Up Unparallelized Execution on Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
Both inherently sequential code and limitations of analysis techniques prevent full parallelization of many applications by parallelizing compilers. Amdahl's Law tells us tha...

MemSpy: Analyzing Memory System Bottlenecks in Programs
To cope with the increasing difference between processor and main memory speeds, modern computer systems use deep memory hierarchies. In the presence of such hierarchies, the perf...
