多核处理器的九大关键技术（Nine key technologies of multi-core processor） Compared with the single core processor, multi-core processor faces great challenges in architecture, software, power consumption and security design, but it also has great potential. Like SMT, CMP is dedicated to discovering coarse-grained parallelism in computing. CMP can be seen as the development of large-scale integrated circuit technology, the chip capacity is large enough, it can be massively parallel processor structure SMP (SMP) or DSM (distributed shared processor) nodes are integrated into one chip, parallel execution of different threads or processes on each processor. In a single chip multiprocessor based on the SMP structure, the processor communicates over an off chip Cache or an off chip shared memory. In the single chip multiprocessor based on the DSM architecture, the processors communicate via an on-chip high-speed crossbar network with distributed memory. Because SMP and DSM are already mature technologies, CMP is easier to design, but only higher in back-end design and chip manufacturing process. Because of this, CMP became the first future high-performance processor architecture to be used in commercial CPU. Although many of the benefits of improved integration have led to a doubling of the performance of chips, it is clear that some of the original system level problems have been introduced into the processor. 1 nuclear structure research: isomorphism or isomerism? The composition of CMP is divided into two categories: isomorphism and isomerism. Isomorphism means that the structure of the inner kernel is the same, and heterogeneous refers to the internal nuclear structure is different. Therefore, the realization of nuclear structure is very important to the performance of future microprocessor in the face of different applications. The structure of the core itself concerns the area, power consumption and performance of the entire chip. How to inherit and develop the results of traditi
