An integrated hardware-software approach to flexible transactional memory
There has been considerable recent interest in the support of transactional memory (TM) in both hardware and software. We present an intermediate approach, in which hardware is us...

The virtual write queue: coordinating DRAM and last-level cache policies
In computer architecture, caches have primarily been viewed as a means to hide memory latency from the CPU. Cache policies have focused on anticipating the CPU’s data needs, and...

Improving Multiprocessor Performance with Coarse-Grain Coherence Tracking
To maintain coherence in conventional shared-memory multiprocessor systems, processors first check other processors’ caches before obtaining data from memory. This coherence che...
