A Case for Fine-Grain Adaptive Cache Coherence

As transistor density continues to grow geometrically, processor manufacturers are already able to place a hundred cores on a chip (e.g., Tilera TILE-Gx 100), with massive multicore chips on the horizon. Programmers now need to invest more effort in designing software capable of exploiting multicore...
