Journal ArticleDOI
I/O reference behavior of production database workloads and the TPC benchmarks—an analysis at the logical level
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive analysis of the logical I/O reference behavior of the peak production database workloads from ten of the world's largest corporations, focusing on how these workloads respond to different techniques for caching, prefetching, and write buffering.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Capturing dynamic memory reference behavior with adaptive cache topology
TL;DR: This paper describes a technique that dynamically identifies underutilized cache frames and effectively utilizes the cache frames they occupy to more accurately approximate the global least-recently-used replacement policy while maintaining the fast access time of a direct-mapped cache.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional implementation techniques for CPU cache memories
TL;DR: Some of the issues that are involved in the implementation of highly optimized cache memories are considered and the techniques that can be used to help achieve the increasingly stringent design targets and constraints of modern processors are surveyed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Improving cache performance with balanced tag and data paths
TL;DR: A path balancing technique is proposed to employ a separate subset of the tag array to decouple the one-to-one relationship between address tags and cache lines so as to achieve a design that provides higher performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving cache performance with Full-Map Block directory
TL;DR: Under this scheme, an additional tag directory, the Full-Map Block Directory, is used to provide an alternate tag path to speed up cache access for almost all the memory requests.
