Abstract

Managing data in a computing system comprising a plurality of cores includes assigning home cache locations of at least a first type of data associated with a first process executing on a first core to respective caches of one or more of the plurality of cores. Cores other than a home core, whose cache includes a home cache location for given cached data, access the given cached data by communicating with the home core. Home cache locations of at least a second type of data associated with the first process are assigned to a local cache of the first core. In response to migrating the first process to execute on a second core, home cache locations of the second type of data associated with the first process are re-assigned to a local cache of the second core.
