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 ...
The recent shift in the industry towards chip multiprocessor (CMP) designs has brought the need for multi-threaded applications to mainstream computing. As observed in several lim...
Extracting high-performance from the emerging Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) requires that the application be divided into multiple threads. Each thread executes on a separate core t...
