摘要
存储器访问速度已经成为现代处理器系统中的瓶颈。对于存储器访问的调度可以有效地提高存储器带宽利用率。基于一种称为突发调度的机制进行改进,通过使用优先级表达式从各个块里选择最合适的突发来访问存储器,运用自适应的方法来调节优先级表达式里各项的系数,使得这一方法针对不同的应用都能取得好的效果。通过运行SPECCPU2000测试程序和stream程序,与顺序访问机制以及突发调度机制相比,该自适应调度机制将总线利用率分别提高了52%和4.8%。[0]
Speed of memory access is a bottleneck in modern computer system. The out-of-order scheduling of memory access can improve bus utilization of memory effectively. Based on a reordering mechanism called burst scheduling, this paper proposes a priority formula to select the most appropriate burst in each bank to access memory, and an adaptive mechanism is introduced to adjust coefficients of priority formula to adapt different applications. Compared with conventional in-order memory access and burst scheduling, the adaptive mechanism improves bus utilization by 52% and 4.8% respectively, by running SPEC CPU2000 benchmarks and stream.
