CAREER: Informed Caching Environment

这个项目整合了内存层次设计的研究和教育。该研究增加了传统的缓存管理技术与更复杂的参考历史信息。这些技术包括程序员提供的注释、用于识别和利用局域性的硬件缓冲区、使用延迟容忍来决定缓存行是否无效，以及线程工作集的预取。这些研究工作将通过增加课程、组织计算机结构工作组和维护一个关于内存层次管理的网站，整合到本科和研究生课程中。

This project integrates research and education in the design of memory hierarchies. The research augments conventional cache management techniques with more sophisticated reference history information. These techniques include programmer-supplied annotations, hardware buffers to identify and exploit locality, use of latency tolerance to decide on invalidation of cache lines, and prefetching of thread working sets. These research efforts will be integrated into the undergraduate and graduate curriculum by adding courses, organizing a working group on computer architecture, and maintaining a web site on memory hierarchy management.
