Modern systems are able to put two or more processors on the same die (Chip Multiprocessors, CMP), each with its private caches, while the last level caches can be either private ...

Snoopy cache coherence protocols broadcast requests to all nodes, reducing the latency of cache to cache transfer misses at the expense of increasing interconnect power. We propos...
SARC merges cache controller and network interface functions by relying on a single hardware primitive: each access checks the tag and the state of the addressed line for possible...
Abstract. In many-core CMP architectures, the cache coherence protocol is a key component since it can add requirements of area and power consumption to the final design and, there...
