The ever-increasing importance of main memory latency and bandwidth is pushing CMPs towards caches with higher capacity and associativity. Associativity is typically improved by in...
— Next generation multimedia mobile phones that use the high bandwidth 3G cellular radio network consume more power. Multimedia algorithms such as speech, video transcodecs have ...
High associativity is important for level-two cache designs [9]. Implementing CAM-based Highly Associative Caches (CAM-HAC), however, is both costly in hardware and exhibits poor s...
The frequency of accesses to remote data is a key factor affecting the performance of all Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems. Remote data caching is one of the most effective...
This paper presents the study and results of running several core multimedia applications on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) architecture, including some detailed analysis ran...
