Heterogeneous multicores, such as Cell BE processors and GPGPUs, typically do not have caches for their accelerator cores because coherence traffic, cache misses, and latencies fr...
A dynamically reconfigurable processor (DRP) is designed to achieve high area efficiency by switching reconfigurable data paths dynamically. Our DRP architecture has a stand alone...
As the last-level on-chip caches in chip-multiprocessors increase in size, the physical locality of on-chip data becomes important for delivering high performance. The non-uniform...
— Modern CPUs operate at GHz frequencies, but the latencies of memory accesses are still relatively large, in the order of hundreds of cycles. Deeper cache hierarchies with large...
