摘要： In a computer system with a memory hierarchy, when a high-level cache supplies a data copy to a low-level cache, the shared copy can be either volatile or non-volatile. When the data copy is later replaced from the low-level cache, if the data copy is non-volatile, it needs to be written back to the high-level cache; otherwise it can be simply flushed from the low-level cache. The high-level cache can employ a volatile-prediction mechanism that adaptively determines whether a volatile copy or a non-volatile copy should be supplied when the high-level cache needs to send data to the low-level cache. An exemplary volatile-prediction mechanism suggests use of a non-volatile copy if the cache line has been accessed consecutively by the low-level cache. Further, the low-level cache can employ a volatile-promotion mechanism that adaptively changes a data copy from volatile to non-volatile according to some promotion policy, or changes a data copy from non-volatile to volatile according to some demotion policy.

摘要： Systems and methods for cache replacement monitoring (CRM) are provided. The system includes a monitored cache comprising a monitored cache line set, the monitored cache line set comprising at least one cache line capable of holding data of a monitored address; and a CRM mechanism operatively associated with the monitored cache. The CRM mechanism collects CRM information for the monitored address. The method includes the steps of collecting CRM information for a monitored address in a monitored cache; and recording the CRM information for the monitored address, when at least one of (1) the monitored address is cached in the monitored cache, (2) the monitored address is replaced in the monitored cache, (3) any cache line in a cache line set corresponding to the monitored address is cached in the monitored cache, and (4) any cache line in a cache line set corresponding to the monitored address is replaced in the monitored cache.

摘要： In a multiprocessor non-uniform cache architecture system, multiple CPU cores shares one non-uniform cache that can be partitioned into multiple cache portions with varying access latencies. A placement prediction mechanism predicts whether a cache line should remain in a cache portion or migrate to another cache portion. The prediction mechanism maintains one or more prediction counters for each cache line. A prediction counter can be incremented or decremented by a constant or a variable determined by some runtime information, or set to its maximum or minimum value. An effective placement prediction mechanism can reduce average access latencies without causing cache thrashing among cache portions.
