Intertask/interprocess synchronization overheads may be significant in a multiprocessor-shared memory System-on-a-Chip implementation. These overheads are observed in terms of loc...

Abstract - A multiprocessor system capable of exploiting fine-grained parallelism must support efficient synchronization and data passing mechanisms. This paper demonstrates the us...
Aggressive prefetching is very beneficial for memory latency tolerance of many applications. However, it faces significant challenges in multi-core systems. Prefetchers of diff...
The growing influence of wire delay in cache design has meant that access latencies to last-level cache banks are no longer constant. Non-Uniform Cache Architectures (NUCAs) have ...
Security has been considered as an important issue in processor design. Most of the existing mechanisms address security and integrity issues caused by untrusted main memory in si...
