A new technical paper titled “WARDen: Specializing Cache Coherence for High-Level Parallel Languages” was published by researchers at Northwestern University and Carnegie Mellon University.

Implemented MSI, MESI and MOESI Cache Coherence protocols in C++ and analyzed the cache performance through variation of different cache configurations. Devised a modified MOESI protocol to reduce the ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Parallel computer architecture and programming models. Message passing and shared memory multiprocessors. Scalability, synchronization, memory consistency, cache coherence. Memory ...

In a modern, multicore chip, every core -- or processor -- has its own small memory cache, where it stores frequently used data. But the chip also has a larger, shared cache, which all the cores can ...

A fundamentally new approach to cache coherence has been released -- the first in more than three decades. Whereas with existing techniques, the directory's memory allotment increases in direct ...
