Tuning a configurable cache subsystem to an application can greatly reduce memory hierarchy energy consumption. Previous tuning methods use a level one configurable cache only, or...
We present a technique for fast estimation of the power consumed by the cache and bus sub-system of a parameterized system-on-a-chip design for a given application. The technique ...
Most modern microprocessors employ one or two levels of on-chip caches in order to improve performance. These caches are typically implemented with static RAM cells and often occu...
