Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for sorting memory pages in a multi-level heterogeneous memory architecture. The system may classify pages into a first “hot” category or a second “cold” category. The system may attempt to place the “hot” pages into the memory level(s) closest to the systems' processor cores. The system may track parameters associated with each page, with the parameters including number of accesses, types of accesses, power consumed per access, temperature, wearability, and/or other parameters. Based on these parameters, the system may generate a score for each page. Then, the system may compare the score of each page to a threshold. If the score of a given page is greater than the threshold, the given page may be designated as “hot”. If the score of the given page is less than the threshold, the given page may be designated as “cold”.
