Reducing the harmful effects of last-level cache polluters with an OS-level, software-only pollute buffer
It is well recognized that LRU cache-line replacement can be ineffective for applications with large working sets or non-localized memory access patterns. Specifically, in lastle...

Increasing the cache efficiency by eliminating noise
Caches are very inefficiently utilized because not all the excess data fetched into the cache, to exploit spatial locality, is utilized. We define cache utilization as the percent...

A first look at the interplay of code reordering and configurable caches
The instruction cache is a popular target for optimizations of microprocessor-based systems because of the cache’s high impact on system performance and power, and because of th...

Scalable cache memory design for large-scale SMT architectures
The cache hierarchy design in existing SMT and superscalar processors is optimized for latency, but not for bandwidth. The size of the L1 data cache did not scale over the past dec...
