Performance Evaluation and Cost Analysis of Cache Protocol Extensions for Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
—We evaluate three extensions to directory-based cache coherence protocols in shared-memory multiprocessors. These extensions are aimed at reducing the penalties associated with ...

Error Detection via Online Checking of Cache Coherence with Token Coherence Signatures
To provide high dependability in a multithreaded system despite hardware faults, the system must detect and correct errors in its shared memory system. Recent research has explore...

On Reducing False Sharing while Improving Locality on Shared Memory Multiprocessors
The performance of applications on large shared-memory multiprocessors with coherent caches depends on the interaction between the granularity of data sharing, the size of the coh...
