Balanced cache bypassing for critical warp reduction: work-in-progress

Abstract

Warp-level cache bypassing has been proposed to resolve GPU memory resource contention on GPU computing. However, the proposed cache bypassing scheme has sub-optimal performance due to warp criticality problem in balanced workload. In this paper, we show that warp-level cache bypassing is a sub-optimal solution and propose a balanced cache bypassing scheme to solve this problem.
