One of the key challenges in chip multi-processing is to provide a programming model that manages cache coherency in a transparent and efficient way. A large number of applications designed for ...

Intel released a new CPU model this week, the Intel Core i9 7900X, which is the latest model to feature a new cache architecture that hardware experts believe it will make exploitation of side-channel ...

This paper presents the architecture of a high performance level 2 cache capable of use with a large class of embedded RISC cpu cores. The cache has a number of novel features including advanced ...

A perspective on Intel’s architectural approach to addressing the needs of the data center, and how that manifests with the Scalable family’s new “mesh” on-chip interconnect A key focus in data center ...

This 16-core, 32-thread CPU builds upon the capabilities of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D by addressing its core count limitations. The processor features an enhanced cache architecture, integrating 96 MB of 3D ...

At the International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC), AMD recently presented some additional in-depth information about the upcoming Zen micro-architecture used in their highly anticipated ...

While traditional single core systems employ a dedicated cache, theintroduction of multi-core platforms presents the opportunity toconsider the shared use of cache by multiple processors. Designs ...

A Cache-Only Memory Architecture design (COMA) may be a sort of Cache-Coherent Non-Uniform Memory Access (CC- NUMA) design. not like in a very typical CC-NUMA design, in a COMA, each shared-memory ...

“A long battery life is a first-class design objective for mobile devices, and main memory accounts for a major portion of total energy consumption. Moreover, the energy consumption from memory is ...

Intel announced its family of Xeon Scalable Processors in early May, featuring the Skylake-SP microarchitecture. Those processors haven’t officially launched just yet, but today the chip giant is ...
