An Adaptive Shared/Private NUCA Cache Partitioning Scheme for Chip Multiprocessors
The significant speed-gap between processor and memory and the limited chip memory bandwidth make last-level cache performance crucial for future chip multiprocessors. To use the...

An Efficient Solution to the Cache Thrashing Problem Caused by True Data Sharing
—When parallel programs are executed on multiprocessors with private caches, a set of data may be repeatedly used and modified by different threads. Such data sharing can often r...

A Novel Lightweight Directory Architecture for Scalable Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
There are two important hurdles that restrict the scalability of directory-based shared-memory multiprocessors: the directory memory overhead and the long L2 miss latencies due to ...

Reducing Memory and Traffic Requirements for Scalable Directory-Based Cache Coherence Schemes
As multiprocessors are scaled beyond single bus systems, there is renewed interest in directory-based cache coherence schemes. These schemes rely on a directory to keep track of a...

Adaptive prefetching for shared cache based chip multiprocessors
Abstract—Chip multiprocessors (CMPs) present a unique scenario for software data prefetching with subtle tradeoffs between memory bandwidth and performance. In a shared L2 based ...
