Recently, numerous academic publications pointed out the benefits of hardware coherence in MultiProcessor SoCs (MPSoCs) [3][4][5], citing reasons such as enhanced performance versus software ...

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 ...

Accomplished by well-designed algorithms that keep track of every read and write event, cache coherency is even more critical in symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) where memory is shared by multiple ...
