The shared cache structures and snoop cache structures for single-chip multiprocessors are evaluated and compared using an instruction level simulator. Simulation results show that...
Future embedded systems are expected to use chip-multiprocessors to provide the execution power for increasingly demanding applications. Multiprocessors increase the pressure on th...

With the ability to place large numbers of transistors on a single silicon chip, manufacturers have begun developing chip multiprocessors (CMPs) containing multiple processor core...
This paper proposes DCC (Dynamic Cache Clustering), a novel distributed cache management scheme for large-scale chip multiprocessors. Using DCC, a per-core cache cluster is compri...
Efficient use of the memory hierarchy is critical for achieving high performance in a multiprocessor systemon-chip. An external memory that is shared between processors is a bottl...
