Unified microprocessor core storage

The organization and management of microprocessor storage structures (e.g., L1 caches, TLBs, etc.) is critical to the performance and energy consumption of the microprocessor. We propose and develop the first microprocessor that can dynamically allocate storage to the structures that need it. First, we replace each existing structure with a dedicated micro-cache (
