Code and Data Transformations for Improving Shared Cache Performance on SMT Processors
Simultaneous multithreaded processors use shared on-chip caches, which yield better cost-performance ratios. Sharing a cache between simultaneously executing threads causes excessi...

Memory hierarchy reconfiguration for energy and performance in general-purpose processor architectures
Conventional microarchitectures choose a single memory hierarchy design point targeted at the average application. In this paper, we propose a cache and TLB layout and design that...

Dynamic Helper Threaded Prefetching on the Sun UltraSPARC CMP Processor
Data prefetching via helper threading has been extensively investigated on Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) or Virtual Multi-Threading (VMT) architectures. Although reportedly la...
