A Performance Evaluation of the Convex SPP-1000 Scalable Shared Memory Parallel Computer
The Convex SPP-1000 is the first commercial implementation of a new generation of scalable shared memory parallel computers with full cache coherence. It employs a hierarchical s...

Impact of Switch Design on the Application Performance of Cache-Coherent Multiprocessors
In this paper, the effect of switch design on the application performance of cache-coherent non-uniform memory access (CC-NUMA) multiprocessors is studied in detail. Wormhole rout...

An OS-based alternative to full hardware coherence on tiled CMPs
The interconnect mechanisms (shared bus or crossbar) used in current chip-multiprocessors (CMPs) are expected to become a bottleneck that prevents these architectures from scaling...

Performance Evaluation and Cost Analysis of Cache Protocol Extensions for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
—We evaluate three extensions to directory-based cache coherence protocols in shared-memory multiprocessors. These extensions are aimed at reducing the penalties associated with ...
