HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE TECHNIQUES TO IMPROVE MEMORY SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND POWER ON MULTICORE ARCHITECTURES (SMART MEMORY SYSTEM)
Start date: Jan 3, 2011, End date: Jan 3, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

"The proposed project, Smart Memory System, introduces novel hardware and software techniques to improve performance and power of memory systems in multicore architectures. We will develop low-cost and practical hardware techniques to enhance the memory controllers to improve memory bandwidth, latency, and power consumption, and software techniques to improve locality. The project specifically intends to meet the following scientific and technical goals: (1) creating a cycle-accurate simulation environment to design and evaluate hardware and software techniques for multicore systems, (2) developing innovative memory prefetching, memory scheduling, and memory power management techniques for multicore architectures, and developing compiler transformations to improve locality in multicore systems, and (3) integrating and evaluating hardware and software methods in the context of the multicore Cell Broadband Engine Architecture."
