Architecting, programming, and evaluating an on-chip incoherent multi-processor memory hierarchy
… for such an environment, which can use scratchpads or incoherent caches, is challenging. Hence, this thesis focuses on architecting, programming, and evaluating an on-chip incoherent multiprocessor memory hierarchy. This thesis starts by examining incoherent multiprocessor caches. It …

Exploiting software information for an efficient memory hierarchy
… related to data storage. Caches and scratchpads are two popular organizations for storing data in today’s systems but they both have inefficiencies. Caches are power-hungry incurring expensive tag lookups and scratchpads incur unnecessary data movement as they are only locally …

Techniques to improve dynamic cache management with static data classification
… difficult to manage. Several techniques, such as scratchpads or reuse hints, use static information about how programs access data to manage the memory hierarchy. Static techniques are effective on regular programs, but because they set fixed policies, they are vulnerable to changes in program …

Efficient coherence and consistency for specialized memory hierarchies
… address spaces, specialized memories such as scratchpads still exist in disjoint, private address spaces. This increases programming complexity and causes inefficiencies that negate some of the benefits of specialization. We introduce a new memory organization, stash, that mitigates the …
