[EN] As technology advances, the number of cores in Chip MultiProcessor systems and MultiProcessor Systems-on-Chips keeps increasing. The network must provide sustained throughput and ultra-low latencies. In this paper we ...
Manycore CMP systems are expected to grow to tens or even hundreds of cores. In this paper we show that the effective co-design of both, the network-on-chip and the coherence protocol, improves performance and power meanwhile ...

[EN] Future chip multiprocessors will include hundreds of cores organised in a tile-based design pattern. These systems commonly employ a shared memory programming model, thus needing a coherence protocol to keep data ...

[ES] La constante necesidad de un mayor rendimiento para cumplir con la gran demanda de potencia de cómputo de las nuevas aplicaciones, (ej. sistemas de conducción autónoma), obliga a la industria a apostar por la tecnología ...

[EN] A dedicated control network is used to transmit acknowledgement messages generated by the
coherence protocol, thus reducing the traffic in the regular NoC and improving the overall system
performance
In tiled Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) last-level cache (LLC) banks are usually shared but distributed among the tiles. A static mapping of cache blocks to the LLC banks leads to poor efficiency since a block may be mapped ...
[EN] The router plays an important role in communication among different processing cores in on-chip networks. Technology scaling on one hand has enabled the designers to integrate multiple processing components on a single ...
Lodde, Mario(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2014-02-04)
La jerarquía de caches y la red en el chip (NoC) son dos componentes clave de los chip multiprocesadores (CMPs). La mayoría del trafico en la NoC se debe a mensajes que las caches envían según lo que establece el protocolo ...

[EN] The number of cores on a single silicon chip is rapidly growing and chips containing tens or even hundreds of identical cores are expected in the future. To take advantage of multicore chips, multiple applications ...
