Open Core Protocol (OCP) [1][2] is a common standard for Intellectual Property (IP)core interfaces. OCP facilitates IP core plug-and-play and simplifies reuse by decoupling the cores from the on-chip ...

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 ...

In distributed memory systems, not all cores or processors have the same access to memory; see Figure 4.7. Memory is local to a particular core or processor, with only that processor having direct ...

While there are a number of ways to build shared memory clusters, Numascale’s hardware solution has matured with up to 256 Tbytes of physical address space in its scalable on-chip switch fabric. With ...
