Abstract
A processor includes a processing core to generate a memory request for an application data in an application. The processor also includes a virtual page group memory management (VPGMM) unit coupled to the processing core to specify a caching priority (CP) to the application data for the application. The caching priority identifies importance of the application data in a cache.
