Abstract

Method and apparatus to efficiently store and cache data. Cores of a processor and cache slices co-located with the cores may be grouped into a cluster. A memory space may be partitioned into address regions. The cluster may be associated with an address region from the address regions. Each memory address of the address region may be mapped to one or more of the cache slices grouped into the cluster. A cache access from one or more of the cores grouped into the cluster may be biased to the address region based on the association of the cluster with the address region.
