Emerging task-based parallel programming models shield programmers from the daunting task of parallelism management by delegating the responsibility of mapping and scheduling of individual tasks to the runtime system. The runtime system can use semantic information about task dependencies supplied by the programmer and the mapping information of tasks to enable optimizations like data-flow based execution and locality-aware scheduling of tasks. However, should the cache coherence substrate have access to this information from the runtime system, it would enable aggressive optimizations of prevailing access patterns such as one-to-many producer-consumer sharing and migratory sharing. Such linkage has however not been studied before. We prese...
