An efficient cache design for scalable glueless shared-memory multiprocessors
Traditionally, cache coherence in large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors has been ensured by means of a distributed directory structure stored in main memory. In this way, the ...

Cohesion: a hybrid memory model for accelerators
Two broad classes of memory models are available today: models with hardware cache coherence, used in conventional chip multiprocessors, and models that rely upon software to mana...

Speculative supplier identification for reducing power of interconnects in snoopy cache coherence protocols
In this work we reduce interconnect power dissipation in Symmetric Multiprocessors or SMPs. We revisit snoopy cache coherence protocols and reduce unnecessary interconnect activit...
