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...
Increasing miniaturization is posing multiple challenges to electronic designers. In the context of Multi-Processor System-onChips (MPSoCs), we focus on the problem of implementin...

One approach in verifying the correctness of a multiprocessor system is to show that its execution results comply with the memory consistency model it is meant to implement. It ha...
The instruction sets of general-purpose microprocessors are designed to offer good performance across a wide range of programs. The size and complexity of the instruction sets, how...
The fast evolution of processor performance necessitates a permanent evolution of all the multiprocessor components, even for small to medium-scale symmetric multiprocessors (SMP)...
