Multicore Processors and Systems provides a comprehensive overview
of emerging multicore processors and systems. It covers technology
trends affecting multicores, multicore architecture innovations,
multicore software innovations, and case studies of
state-of-the-art commercial multicore systems. A cross-cutting
theme of the book is the challenges associated with scaling up
multicore systems to hundreds of cores. The book provides an
overview of significant developments in the architectures for
multicore processors and systems. It includes chapters on
fundamental requirements for multicore systems, including
processing, memory systems, and interconnect. It also includes
several case studies on commercial multicore systems that have
recently been developed and deployed across multiple application
domains. The architecture chapters focus on innovative multicore
execution models as well as infrastructure for multicores,
including memory systems and on-chip interconnections. The case
studies examine multicore implementations across different
application domains, including general purpose, server,
media/broadband, network processing, and signal processing.
Multicore Processors and Systems is the first book that focuses
solely on multicore processors and systems, and in particular on
the unique technology implications, architectures, and
implementations. The book has contributing authors that are from
both the academic and industrial communities.
