Multimedia extensions (MME) are architectural extensions to general-purpose processors to boost the performance of multimedia workloads. Today, in-line assembly code, intrinsic fu...
Internet streaming applications are affected by adverse network conditions such as high packet loss rates and long delays. This paper aims at mitigating such effects by leveraging...
The memory hierarchy of a system can consume up to 50% of microprocessor system power. Previous work has shown that tuning a configurable cache to a particular application can red...
It is well recognized that LRU cache-line replacement can be ineffective for applications with large working sets or non-localized memory access patterns. Specifically, in lastle...
