This book was released on 1989-03-31 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we continue to build faster and fast. er computers, their performance is be coming increasingly dependent on the memory hierarchy. Both the clock speed of the machine and its throughput per clock depend heavily on the memory hierarchy. The time to complet. e a cache acce88 is oft. en the factor that det. er mines the cycle time. The effectiveness of the hierarchy in keeping the average cost of a reference down has a major impact on how close the sustained per formance is to the peak performance. Small changes in the performance of the memory hierarchy cause large changes in overall system performance. The strong growth of ruse machines, whose performance is more tightly coupled to the memory hierarchy, has created increasing demand for high performance memory systems. This trend is likely to accelerate: the improvements in main memory performance will be small compared to the improvements in processor performance. This difference will lead to an increasing gap between prOCe880r cycle time and main memory acce. time. This gap must be closed by improving the memory hierarchy. Computer architects have attacked this gap by designing machines with cache sizes an order of magnitude larger than those appearing five years ago. Microproce880r-based RISe systems now have caches that rival the size of those in mainframes and supercomputers.

This book was released on 1996-08-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cache memory is commonly used to bridge the gap between microprocessor and memory speeds. A wide variety of cache designs are possible, so some method is required to evaluate the benefits and costs of the various alternatives. Trace driven simulation is commonly used by the computer architecture community to analyze potential designs. Traces of benchmark execution are applied to a model of the design under study. Most of today's computer systems have been optimized based on results of these studies. One important aspect that is frequently ignored in trace driven studies is the effect of the operating system and multiprogramming on cache performance; most traces consist only of a single program's execution. It has been acknowledged in the past that this overhead introduces interference which limits the benefits of new designs, but evaluations using multiprogrammed traces have been neglected due to the lack of readily available tools that can capture such traces. In this research we describe a new tracing system that allows the capture of both operating system and multiprogrammed execution data. Cache performance is studied using multiprogrammed traces of the SPEC benchmarks. We study the effects of considering multiple tasks on the cache miss rate. The performance variation is primarily due to the presence of context switches. In an attempt to extend this work, we develop an analytical model that is used to synthetically incorporate context switches into a single process trace. We have found that the operating system introduces a small but persistent overhead to cache performance Additional processes have an even greater impact, which increases as the level of multi-tasking increases. Spatial locality is not significantly affected by these conditions, but the temporal locality of a program is substantially reduced by the presence of context switches.

This book was released on 1993-06-07 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parallel processing offers a solution to the problem of providing the processing power necessary to help understand and master the complexity of natural phenomena and engineering structures. By taking several basic processing devices and connecting them together the potential exists of achieving a performance many times that of an individual device. However, building parallel application programs is today recognized as a highly complex activity requiring specialist skills and in-depth knowledge. PARLE is an international, European based conference which focuses on the parallel processing subdomain of informatics and information technology. It is intended to become THE European forum for interchange between experts in the parallel processing domain and to attract both industrial and academic participants with a technical programme designedto provide a balance between theory and practice. This volume contains the proceedings of PARLE '93. The PARLE conference came into existence in 1987 as an initiative from the ESPRIT I programme and the format was revised in 1991/92. PARLE '93 is the second conference with the new format and was held in Munich.

Download or read book Computer Architecture written by John L. Hennessy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-05-29 with total page 1133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This best-selling title, considered for over a decade to be essential reading for every serious student and practitioner of computer design, has been updated throughout to address the most important trends facing computer designers today. In this edition, the authors bring their trademark method of quantitative analysis not only to high performance desktop machine design, but also to the design of embedded and server systems. They have illustrated their principles with designs from all three of these domains, including examples from consumer electronics, multimedia and web technologies, and high performance computing. The book retains its highly rated features: Fallacies and Pitfalls, which share the hard-won lessons of real designers; Historical Perspectives, which provide a deeper look at computer design history; Putting it all Together, which present a design example that illustrates the principles of the chapter; Worked Examples, which challenge the reader to apply the concepts, theories and methods in smaller scale problems; and Cross-Cutting Issues, which show how the ideas covered in one chapter interact with those presented in others. In addition, a new feature, Another View, presents brief design examples in one of the three domains other than the one chosen for Putting It All Together. The authors present a new organization of the material as well, reducing the overlap with their other text, Computer Organization and Design: A Hardware/Software Approach 2/e, and offering more in-depth treatment of advanced topics in multithreading, instruction level parallelism, VLIW architectures, memory hierarchies, storage devices and network technologies. Also new to this edition, is the adoption of the MIPS 64 as the instruction set architecture. In addition to several online appendixes, two new appendixes will be printed in the book: one contains a complete review of the basic concepts of pipelining, the other provides solutions a selection of the exercises. Both will be invaluable to the student or professional learning on her own or in the classroom. Hennessy and Patterson continue to focus on fundamental techniques for designing real machines and for maximizing their cost/performance. * Presents state-of-the-art design examples including: * IA-64 architecture and its first implementation, the Itanium * Pipeline designs for Pentium III and Pentium IV * The cluster that runs the Google search engine * EMC storage systems and their performance * Sony Playstation 2 * Infiniband, a new storage area and system area network * SunFire 6800 multiprocessor server and its processor the UltraSPARC III * Trimedia TM32 media processor and the Transmeta Crusoe processor * Examines quantitative performance analysis in the commercial server market and the embedded market, as well as the traditional desktop market.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The next generation of computer system designers will be less concerned about details of processors and memories, and more concerned about the elements of a system tailored to particular applications. These designers will have a fundamental knowledge of processors and other elements in the system, but the success of their design will depend on the skills in making system-level tradeoffs that optimize the cost, performance and other attributes to meet application requirements. This book provides a new treatment of computer system design, particularly for System-on-Chip (SOC), which addresses the issues mentioned above. It begins with a global introduction, from the high-level view to the lowest common denominator (the chip itself), then moves on to the three main building blocks of an SOC (processor, memory, and interconnect). Next is an overview of what makes SOC unique (its customization ability and the applications that drive it). The final chapter presents future challenges for system design and SOC possibilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the placement of pages in main memory also places data in the cache, a poor page placement will cause poor cache performance. This dissertation introduces several new careful page mapping algorithms to improve the page placement, and shows that they eliminate 10%-20% of the direct-mapped real-indexed cache misses for the long traces. In other words, this dissertation develops software techniques that can make a hardware direct-mapped cache appear about 50% larger."
