  1. 1. Analysis and Optimization of Communication Overheads in Multi-core Architectures

    Författare :Madhavan Manivannan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; task parallelism; multi-core; cache coherence; runtime systems; sharing patterns; Amdahl’s Law;

    Sammanfattning : The transition to multi-core architectures can be attributed mainly to fundamental limitations in clockfrequency scaling coupled with a slow growth in uniprocessor performance effected by the challengesin exploiting instruction-level parallelism. Consequently, programmers can no longer realize significant performance gains without investing effort into parallelizing applications. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Towards Runtime-Assisted Cache Management for Task-Parallel Programs

    Författare :Madhavan Manivannan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; task parallelism; cache hierarchy; runtime system; dead blocks; multi-core architecture; sharing patterns;

    Sammanfattning : Architects have adopted the shared memory model that implicitly manages cache coherence and cache capacity in hardware, mainly to aid programmability of multi-core architectures. The hardware mechanisms are however prone to inefficiencies because they are not tailored to the behavior of individual parallel applications. LÄS MER
