Application-specific system-on-chip platforms create the opportunity to customize the cache configuration for optimal performance with minimal chip estate. Simulation, in partic...
This research explores any potential for an on-chip cache compression which can reduce not only cache miss ratio but also miss penalty, if main memory is also managed in compresse...
The widening gap between CPU and memory speed has made caches an integral feature of modern highperformance processors. The high degree of configurability of cache memory can requ...
