Abstract:

In this paper, we describe the architectural output of our 'Moving
threads realization study' (MOTH) project, which is a RISC-based
multicore architecture framework. Each fraction of the memory can be
accessed only via a certain core, via its cache memory. This
approach leads to moving light-weight threads but at the same time
provides strong memory coherence as no main memory location is
replicated to several caches. We describe the overall multicore
architecture, but special emphasis is put on describing the
functionality of individual RISC-based cores.
