These are exciting times for the memory hierarchy in systems. New kinds of DRAM and non-volatile memories are becoming available to system architects to enhance the performance and responsiveness of ...
One of the greatest challenges facing the designers of many-core processors is resource contention. The chart below visually lays out the problem of resource contention, but for most of us the idea is ...
The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...
Editor’s Note: Demand for increasing functionality and performance in systems designs continues to drive the need for more memory even as hardware engineers balance the dynamics of system capability, ...
System-on-chip (SoC) architects have a new memory technology, last level cache (LLC), to help overcome the design obstacles of bandwidth, latency and power consumption in megachips for advanced driver ...
This section describes three topics discussed in other chapters that are fundamental to memory hierarchies. Protection and Instruction Set Architecture Protection is a joint effort of architecture and ...
A technical paper titled “RevaMp3D: Architecting the Processor Core and Cache Hierarchy for Systems with Monolithically-Integrated Logic and Memory” was published by researchers at ETH Zürich, KMUTNB, ...
A new proposal could boost cache efficiency and performance significantly, at the very time we need it most. Will CPU designers bite? Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a ...
