Thread Owned Block Cache: Managing Latency in Many-Core Architecture
Abstract. Shared last level cache is crucial to performance. However, multithread program model incurs serious contention in shared cache. In this paper, to reduce average cache ac...

Zero-cycle loads: microarchitecture support for reducing load latency
Untolerated load instruction latencies often have a significant impact on overall program performance. As one means of mitigating this effect, we present an aggressive hardware-b...
