Abstract
Runtime systems to mitigate memory resource contention problems on multicore processors have recently attracted much research attention. One critical component of these runtimes is the indicators to rank and classify applications based on their contention characteristics. However, although there has been significant research effort, application contention characteristics remain not well understood and indicators have not been thoroughly evaluated.
In this chapter, we performed a thorough ...
