Publisher Description:

This book summarizes the landscape of cache replacement policies for CPU data caches.

The emphasis is on algorithmic issues, so the authors start by defining a taxonomy that places previous policies into two broad categories, which they refer to as coarse-grained and fine-grained policies. Each of these categories is then divided into three subcategories that describe different approaches to solving the cache replacement problem, along with summaries of significant work in each category. Richer factors, including solutions that optimize for metrics beyond cache miss rates, that are tailored to multi-core settings, that consider interactions with prefetchers, and that consider new memory technologies, are then explored. The book concludes by discussing trends and challenges for future work. This book, which assumes that readers will have a basic understanding of computer architecture and caches, will be useful to academics and practitioners across the field.

Contributor Bio(s): Jain, Akanksha: - Akanksha Jain is a Research Associate at The University of Texas at Austin. She received her Ph.D. in Computer Science from The University of Texas in August 2016. In 2009, she received B. Tech and M. Tech degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras. Her research interests are in computer architecture, with a particular focus on the memory system and on using machine learning techniques to improve the design of memory system optimizations.Enright Jerger, Natalie: - University of TorontoLin, Calvin: - Calvin Lin is a University Distinguished Teacher Professor of Computer Science at The University of Texas at Austin. Lin received the BSE in Computer Science from Princeton University in 1985 (Magna Cum Laude) and the Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Washington in December 1992. Lin was a postdoc at the University of Washington until 1996, when he joined the faculty at Texas. Lin's research takes a broad view of how compilers and computer hardware can be used to improve system performance, system security, and programmer productivity. He is also Director of UT's Turing Scholars Honors Program, and when he is not working, he can be found chasing his two young sons or coaching the UT men's ultimate frisbee team.Martonosi, Margaret: - Margaret Martonosi is the Hugh Trumbull Adams '35 Professor of Computer Science at Princeton University, where she has been on the faculty since 1994. She is also Director of the Princeton's Keller Center for Innovation in Engineering Education, and an A. D. White Visiting Professor-at-Large at Cornell University. From August 2015 through March, 2017, Martonosi was a Jefferson Science Fellow within the U.S. Department of State. Martonosi's research interests are in computer architecture and mobile computing. Her work has included the widely-used Wattch power modeling tool and the Princeton ZebraNet mobile sensor network project for the design and real-world deployment of zebra tracking collars in Kenya. Her current research focuses on computer architecture and hardware-software interface issues in both classical and quantum computing systems. Martonosi is a Fellow of IEEE and ACM. Her papers have received numerous long-term impact awards including: 2015 ISCA Long-Term Influential Paper Award, 2017 ACM SIGMOBILE Test-of-Time Award, 2017 ACM SenSys Test-of-Time Paper award, and the 2018 (Inaugural) HPCA Test-of-Time Paper award. Other notable awards include the 2018 IEEE Computer Society Technical Achievement Award, 2010 Princeton University Graduate Mentoring Award, the 2013 NCWIT Undergraduate Research Mentoring Award, the 2013 Anita Borg Institute Technical Leadership Award, and the 2015 Marie Pistilli Women in EDA Achievement Award. In addition to many archival publications, Martonosi is an inventor on seven granted US patents, and has co-authored two technical reference books on power-aware computer architecture. Martonosi completed her Ph.D. at Stanford University.
