Hill The long range focus of this research is on the performance evaluation and implementation of multiprocessors that are easy to program, provide orders of magnitude more computing power, and can be implemented cost effectively. The principal thrust of this work is on the design of cache memories, with specific tasks on the development of multiprocessor compilers, the implementation and semantics of address translation, the implementation of coherent shared memory in systems with multiple caches, the interaction between cache design and implementation factors, and the future effectiveness of cache hierarchies. The focus of the research during this period is on the completion of the study of cooperative shared memory, the continuation of the work on the Wisconsin Wind Tunnel, and the study of operating system modifications to take advantage of variable page sizes.

希尔 这项研究的长期重点是多处理器的性能评估和实现，易于编程，提供更多的计算能力的数量级，并可以实现成本效益。 这项工作的主要推力是高速缓存存储器的设计，具体任务的发展多处理器编译器，地址翻译的实现和语义，在多个高速缓存系统中的一致性共享内存的实现，高速缓存设计和实现因素之间的相互作用，以及未来的有效性高速缓存层次结构。 在此期间的研究重点是完成合作共享内存的研究，继续在威斯康星州风洞的工作，并研究操作系统的修改，以利用可变的页面大小。
