The importance of the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) on system performance is well known. There have been numerous prior efforts addressing TLB design issues for cutting down ...
In an effort to push the envelope of system performance, microprocessor designs are continually exploiting higher levels of instruction-level parallelism, resulting in increasing ...
Recently, several experimental studies have been conducted on block data layout as a data transformation technique used in conjunction with tiling to improve cache performance. In...
fipical translation lookaside buffers (TLBs)can map a far smaller region of memory than application footprints demand, and the cost of handling TLB misses therefore limits the per...
