We propose an organization for the on-chip memory system of a chip multiprocessor, in which 16 processors share a 16MB pool of 256 L2 cache banks. The L2 cache is organized as a n...

The frequency of accesses to remote data is a key factor affecting the performance of all Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems. Remote data caching is one of the most effective...
Communication misses--those serviced by dirty data in remote caches--are a pressing performance limiter in shared-memory multiprocessors. Recent research has indicated that tempor...
