Dictionary code compression is a technique where long instructions in the memory are replaced with shorter code words used as index in a table to look up the original instructions...
—Since many embedded systems execute a predefined set of programs, tuning system components to application programs and data is the approach chosen by many design techniques to o...
Main memory accesses continue to be a significant bottleneck for applications whose working sets do not fit in second-level caches. With the trend of greater associativity in seco...
In a Chip Multi-Processor (CMP) with private caches, the last level cache is statically partitioned between all the cores. This prevents such CMPs from sharing cache capacity in r...
We describe a radically new cache architecture and demonstrate that it offers a huge reduction in cache cost, size and power consumption whilst maintaining performance on a wide ra...
