Accurately approximating superscalar processor performance from traces
Trace-driven simulation of superscalar processors is particularly complicated. The dynamic nature of superscalar processors combined with the static nature of traces can lead to l...

Scalable Shared-Cache Management by Containing Thrashing Workloads
Abstract. Multi-core processors with shared last-level caches are vulnerable to performance inefficiencies and fairness issues when the cache is not carefully managed between the m...

Cache contention and application performance prediction for multi-core systems
—The ongoing move to chip multiprocessors (CMPs) permits greater sharing of last-level cache by processor cores but this sharing aggravates the cache contention problem, potentia...

Provably good multicore cache performance for divide-and-conquer algorithms
This paper presents a multicore-cache model that reflects the reality that multicore processors have both per-processor private (L1) caches and a large shared (L2) cache on chip. ...

Modeling critical sections in Amdahl's law and its implications for multicore design
This paper presents a fundamental law for parallel performance: it shows that parallel performance is not only limited by sequential code (as suggested by Amdahl’s law) but is a...
