Query: CBP: Coordinated management of cache partitioning, bandwidth
  partitioning and prefetch throttling   Reducing the average memory access time is crucial for improving the
performance of applications running on multi-core architectures. With workload
consolidation this becomes increasingly challenging due to shared resource
contention. Techniques for partitioning of shared resources - cache and
bandwidth - and prefetching throttling have been proposed to mitigate
contention and reduce the average memory access time. However, existing
proposals only employ a single or a subset of these techniques and are
therefore not able to exploit the full potential of coordinated management of
cache, bandwidth and prefetching. Our characterization results show that
application performance, in several cases, is sensitive to prefetching, cache
and bandwidth allocation. Furthermore, the results show that managing these
together provides higher performance potential during workload consolidation as
it enables more resource trade-offs. In this paper, we propose CBP a
coordination mechanism for dynamically managing prefetching throttling, cache
and bandwidth partitioning, in order to reduce average memory access time and
improve performance. CBP works by employing individual resource managers to
determine the appropriate setting for each resource and a coordinating
mechanism in order to enable inter-resource trade-offs. Our evaluation on a
16-core CMP shows that CBP, on average, improves performance by 11% compared to
the state-of-the-art technique that manages cache partitioning and prefetching
and by 50% compared to the baseline without cache partitioning, bandwidth
partitioning and prefetch throttling.
