Evaluate the authors’ findings with regard to cache contention. Explain what causes contention for the cache.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1. Examine the authors’ findings. (The authors ran three (3) applications (Soplex, Sphinx, and
Namd) to test memory contention problems when different pairings of these applications were
used.) The current and future trend is to increase processing performance by using multicore
systems.
2. Analyze the schedule that the authors used to test the applications using a distributed
architecture. Identify which schedule they believed was the best.
Evaluate the authors’ findings with regard to cache contention. Explain what causes contention
for the cache.
4. Analyze the contention avoidance methods proposed by the authors for the cache, memory
controller, front-side bus (FSB), and prefetching hardware in the distributed architecture.
5. Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignme
