Impact of Heterogeneity on DSM Performance
This paper explores area/parallelism tradeo s in the design of distributed shared-memory (DSM) multiprocessors built out of large single-chip computing nodes. In this context, are...

How Much Does Network Contention Affect Distributed Shared Memory Performance?
Most of recent research on distributed shared memory (DSM)systems have focused on either careful design of node controllersor cache coherenceprotocols. Whileevaluating these desig...

High level cache simulation for heterogeneous multiprocessors
As multiprocessor systems-on-chip become a reality, performance modeling becomes a challenge. To quickly evaluate many architectures, some type of high-level simulation is require...

Cancellation of loads that return zero using zero-value caches
The speed gap between processor and memory continues to limit performance. To address this problem, we explore the potential of eliminating Zero Loads—loads accessing memory loc...

A compressed memory hierarchy using an indirect index cache
Abstract. The large and growing impact of memory hierarchies on overall system performance compels designers to investigate innovative techniques to improve memory-system efficienc...
