While trace cache, value prediction, and prefetching have been shown to be effective in the single-threaded superscalar, there has been no analysis of these techniques in a Simulta...
A new architectural technique to reduce power dissipation in data caches is proposed. In multimedia applications, a major portion of data cache accesses hit in the same cache set ...
— L1 data caches in high-performance processors continue to grow in set associativity. Higher associativity can significantly increase the cache energy consumption. Cache access...

The memory hierarchy of most multicore systems contains one or more levels of cache that is shared among multiple cores. The shared-cache architecture presents many opportunities f...
Static worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis is done by modeling the hardware behavior. In this paper we describe a WCET analysis technique to analyze systems with function ca...
