Memory Cube (MC) is a memory module that manages three-dimensional stacking of DRAM chips with a logic layer on the bottom layer. The logic layer has a routing function and can route packets to their destinations. Therefore, a Memory-centric Network (MCN) has been proposed to construct a memory network by interconnecting multiple MCs. However, the number of message hops and latency for coherence management are larger in MCNs than in conventional networks that directly connect processors. In conventional MCNs, the coherence directory, which manages data coherence, is assumed to be located in the processor. However, if the coherence directory is placed in the processor, when accessing an MC that is not managed by itself from the processor's point of view, it is necessary to access another processor to check the sharer information. This can be an overhead, especially for write accesses where invalidation signals and ACK communication occur. Therefore, we propose a method in which a coherence directory is placed in the logic layer of the MC and the MC manages the coherence of its own data. This eliminates the need to access other processors to check the sharer information and reduces the number of message hops and latency for coherence management. Evaluation with synthetic traffic and real applications showed that the proposed method can reduce the number of cycles by about 15% for synthetic traffic and by about 25% for real applications. |
