Hierarchical Directory-Based Shared Memory Architecture
We describe the design of a directory-based shared memory architecture on a hierarchical network of hypercubes. The distributed directory scheme comprises two separate hierarchical networks for handling cache requests and transfers. Further, the scheme assumes a single address space and each processing element views the entire network as contiguous memory space. The size of individual directori...
متن کاملA Novel Lightweight Directory Architecture for Scalable Shared-Memory Multiprocessors
There are two important hurdles that restrict the scalability of directory-based shared-memory multiprocessors: the directory memory overhead and the long L2 miss latencies due to the indirection introduced by the accesses to directory information, usually stored in main memory. This work presents a lightweight directory architecture aimed at facing these two important problems. Our proposal ta...

This paper investigates the performance of word-packet, slotted unidirectional ring-based hierarchical direct networks in the context of large-scale shared memory multiprocessors. Slotted unidirectional rings are attractive because their electrical characteristics and simple interfaces allow for fast cycle times and large bandwidths. For large-scale systems, it is necessary to use multiple ring...
متن کاملmDNS - A Proposal for Hierarchical Multicast Session Directory Architecture
Bandwidth in the Internet is constantly increasing. The last mile problem of the Internet has almost been solved. Multimedia has emerged as the favorite mode of information dispersal on the net. Multicast is increasingly being seen as the vehicle of choice for multimedia streams. What has been the one true stumbling roadblock in widespread deployment is the lack of DNS like structure for multic...
