Multicore processors, which integrate multiple processing units onto one chip, have become an increasingly important solution to meet rising computing needs. In this paper we present an in-depth examination of multicore architecture design principles with regards to interconnects, cache coherence, memory management and power consumption issues as well as heat dissipation challenges and complexity of parallel programming issues as major obstacles facing multicore designs today. By looking both theoretical advances as well as real world implementations we also discuss their future and propose potential solutions to overcome current obstacles to multicore technologies today.
