SAMIE-LSQ: set-associative multiple-instruction entry load/store queue
The load/store queue (LSQ) is one of the most complex parts of contemporary processors. Its latency is critical for the processor performance and it is usually one of the processo...

Design Issues and Tradeoffs for Write Buffers
Processors with write-through caches typically require a write buffer to hide the write latency to the next level of memory hierarchy and to reduce write traffic. A write buffer ...

Coherence decoupling: making use of incoherence
This paper explores a new technique called coherence decoupling, which breaks a traditional cache coherence protocol into two protocols: a Speculative Cache Lookup (SCL) protocol ...

Performance driven data cache prefetching in a dynamic software optimization system
Software or hardware data cache prefetching is an efficient way to hide cache miss latency. However effectiveness of the issued prefetches have to be monitored in order to maximi...
