1. Methods for Creating and Exploiting Data Locality
Sammanfattning : The gap between processor speed and memory latency has led to the use of caches in the memory systems of modern computers. Programs must use the caches efficiently and exploit data locality for maximum performance. LÄS MER
2. Advances Towards Data-Race-Free Cache Coherence Through Data Classification
Sammanfattning : Providing a consistent view of the shared memory based on precise and well-defined semantics—memory consistency model—has been an enabling factor in the widespread acceptance and commercial success of shared-memory architectures. Moreover, cache coherence protocols have been employed by the hardware to remove from the programmers the burden of dealing with the memory inconsistency that emerges in the presence of the private caches. LÄS MER
3. Towards Accurate and Resource-Efficient Cache Coherence Prediction
Sammanfattning : The increasing speed gap between processor microarchitectures and memory technologies can potentially slow down the historical performance growth of computer systems. Parallel applicationns on shared memory multiprocessors that experience cache misses due to communication are extra susceptible to this speed difference. LÄS MER
4. Caches, Transactions and Memories : Models, Coherence and Consistency
Sammanfattning : Computers have brought us inestimable convenience in recent years. We have become dependent on them and more sensitive to their performance. During the past decades, we have been trying to improve program efficiency. The invention of multi-core systems is regarded as the new era of boosting performance of computer programs. LÄS MER
5. Towards Low-Complexity Scalable Shared-Memory Architectures
Sammanfattning : Plentiful research has addressed low-complexity software-based shared-memory systems since the idea was first introduced more than two decades ago. However, software-coherent systems have not been very successful in the commercial marketplace. We believe there are two main reasons for this: lack of performance and/or lack of binary compatibility. LÄS MER
