Shared vs. Snoop: Evaluation of Cache Structure for Single-Chip Multiprocessors
The shared cache structures and snoop cache structures for single-chip multiprocessors are evaluated and compared using an instruction level simulator. Simulation results show that...

Accelerating Multiprocessor Simulation with a Memory Timestamp Record
We introduce a fast and accurate technique for initializing the directory and cache state of a multiprocessor system based on a novel software structure called the memory timestam...

Hybrid cache architecture with disparate memory technologies
Caching techniques have been an efficient mechanism for mitigating the effects of the processor-memory speed gap. Traditional multi-level SRAM-based cache hierarchies, especially...

LimitLESS Directories: A Scalable Cache Coherence Scheme
Caches enhance the performance of multiprocessors by reducing network trac and average memory access latency. However, cache-based systems must address the problem of cache coher...
