We present a novel approach that minimizes the power consumption of embedded core-based systems through hardware/software partitioning. Our approach is based on the idea of mapping...
In current processors, the cache controller, which contains the cache directory and other logic such as tag comparators, is active for each instruction fetch and is responsible fo...
In this paper we propose a novel integrated circuit and architectural level technique to reduce leakage power consumption in high performance cache memories using single Vt (trans...
The size and speed of first-level caches and SRAMs of embedded processors continue to increase in response to demands for higher performance. In power-sensitive devices like PDAs a...
