| + | * MSI coherent protocol | ||
| + | * The problem: unnecessary broadcasts of invalidations | ||
| + | * MESI coherent protocol | ||

| + | * Problem: memory can be unnecessarily updated | ||
| + | * A possible owner state (MOESI) | ||
| + | * Tradeoffs between snooping and directory based coherence protocols | ||
| + | * Slide 31 has a good summary | ||
| + | * Directory: data structures | ||
| + | * Bit vectors vs. linked lists | ||
| + | * Scalability of directories | ||
| + | * Size? Latency? Thousand of nodes? Best of both snooping and directory? | ||

| + | * Trade-offs b/w number of sense amps and cells | ||
| + | * Width of bank I/O vs. row size | ||
| + | * DRAM operations | ||
| + | * ACTIVATE, READ/WRITE, and PRECHARGE | ||
| + | * Trade-offs | ||
| + | * Latency | ||
| + | * Bandwidth: Chip vs. rank vs. bank | ||
| + | * What's the benefit of having 8 chips? | ||
| + | * Parallelism | ||

| + | * Application slowdown | ||
| + | * Interference between different applications | ||
| + | * Applications' performance depends on other applications that they are running with | ||
| + | * Predictable performance | ||
| + | * Why are they important? | ||
| + | * Applications that need predictibility | ||
| + | * How to predict the performance? | ||
| + | * What information are useful? | ||
| + | * What need to be guarantee? | ||
| + | * How to estimate the performance when running with others? | ||
| + | * Easy, just measure the performance while it is running. | ||
| + | * How to estimate the performance when the application is running by itself. | ||
| + | * Hard if there is no profiling. | ||
| + | * The relationship between memory service rate and the performance. | ||
| + | * Key assumption: applications are memory bound | ||
| + | * Behavior of memory-bound applications | ||

| + | * Aug tag store | ||
| + | * Separate tag store for different cores | ||
| + | * Cache access rate alone and shared as the metric to estimate slowdown | ||
| + | * Cache paritiioning | ||
| + | * How to determine partitioning | ||
