  • Data transfer optimized software cache for irregular memory references
    Patent number: 8561043
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for optimizing irregular memory references in computer code. These mechanisms may parse the computer code to identify memory references in the computer code. These mechanisms may further classify the memory references in the computer code as either regular memory references or irregular memory references. Moreover, the mechanisms may transform the computer code, by a compiler, to generate transformed computer code in which irregular memory references access a storage of a software cache of a data processing system through a transactional cache mechanism of the software cache.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 28, 2008
    Date of Patent: October 15, 2013
    Assignees: International Business Machines Corporation, Barcelona Supercomputing Center
    Inventors: Eduard Ayguade, Tong Chen, Alexandre E. Eichenberger, Marc Gonzalez Tallada, Xavier Martorell, John K. O'Brien, Kathryn M. O'Brien, Zehra N. Sura, Tao Zhang

These mechanisms may further classify the memory references in the computer code as either regular memory references or irregular memory references. Moreover, the mechanisms may transform the computer code, by a compiler, to generate transformed computer code in which regular memory references access a storage of a software cache of a data processing system through a high locality cache mechanism of the software cache.
