Caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures to hide, in part, the increasing gap between processor speed and memory access times. While the effect of caches on timi...
Cooperative caches offer huge amounts of caching memory that is not always used as well as it could be. We might find blocks in the cache that have not been requested for many hou...
—Transactional memory (TM) is a promising paradigm for helping programmers take advantage of emerging multicore platforms. Though they perform well under low contention, hardware...
