This paper introduces a cost-effective technique to deal with CMP coherence protocol requirements from the interconnection network point of view. A mechanism is presented to avoid...
Snoopy cache coherence can be implemented in any physical network topology by embedding a logical unidirectional ring in the network. Control messages are forwarded using the ring...
Abstract. Customizable processors augmented with application-specific Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) have begun to gain traction in recent years. The most effective ISEs include...
