Abstract—To deal with the “memory wall” problem, microprocessors include large secondary on-chip caches. But as these caches enlarge, they originate a new latency gap between...
In a Chip Multi-Processor (CMP) with private caches, the last level cache is statically partitioned between all the cores. This prevents such CMPs from sharing cache capacity in r...
Cache memories account for a significant fraction of a chip's overall energy dissipation. Recent research advocates using "resizable" caches to exploit cache requir...

The performance of most embedded systems is critically dependent on the memory hierarchy performance. In particular, higher cache hit rate can provide significant performance boos...
