This paper presents Cooperative Cache Partitioning (CCP) to allocate cache resources among threads concurrently running on CMPs. Unlike cache partitioning schemes that use a singl...
Abstract. In this work we put into evidence how the memory performance of a WebServer machine may depend on the sharing induced by process migration. We considered a shared-bus sha...
Step caches are caches in which data entered to an cache array is kept valid only until the end of ongoing step of execution. Together with an advanced pipelined multithreaded arc...
In this paper we present an exhaustive evaluation of the memory subsystem in a chip-multiprocessor (CMP) architecture composed of 16 cores. The characterization is performed making...
