With the ability to place large numbers of transistors on a single silicon chip, manufacturers have begun developing chip multiprocessors (CMPs) containing multiple processor core...
Power consumption within the memory hierarchy grows in importance as on-chip data caches occupy increasingly greater die area. Among dynamic power conservation schemes, horizontal...
Data caches are essential in modern processors, bridging the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they yield very complex performance models, which make...
– Efficient data retrieval in a peer-to-peer system like Freenet is a challenging problem. In this paper we study the impact of cache replacement policy on the performance of Fre...
If current technology scaling trends hold, leakage power dissipation will soon become the dominant source of power consumption in high performance processors. Caches, due to the f...
