Abstract
This paper reports on the performance of four parallel algorithms for simulating an associative cache operating under the LRU (Least-Recently-Used) replacement policy. Three of the algorithms are implemented on the MasPar MP-2. Another algorithm is a parallelization of an efficient serial algorithm on the Intel Paragon. We assess the strengths and weaknesses of these algorithms as a function of problem size and characteristics, and compare their performance on traces derived from execution of three SPEC92 benchmark programs.
