The impact of wrong-path memory references in cache-coherent multiprocessor systems
The core of current-generation high-performance multiprocessor systems is out-of-order execution processors with aggressive branch prediction. Despite their relatively high branch...

Increasing the effectiveness of directory caches by deactivating coherence for private memory blocks
To meet the demand for more powerful high-performance shared-memory servers, multiprocessor systems must incorporate efficient and scalable cache coherence protocols, such as thos...

Friendly fire: understanding the effects of multiprocessor prefetches
Modern processors attempt to overcome increasing memory latencies by anticipating future references and prefetching those blocks from memory. The behavior and possible negative si...

Hierarchical Pointer Analysis for Distributed Programs
We present a new pointer analysis for use in shared memory programs running on hierarchical parallel machines. The analysis is motivated by the partitioned global address space lan...
