We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
This work is based on our philosophy of providing interlayer system-level power awareness in computing systems [26, 27]. Here, we couple this approach with our vision of multipart...

fipical translation lookaside buffers (TLBs)can map a far smaller region of memory than application footprints demand, and the cost of handling TLB misses therefore limits the per...

With the increasing clock rate and transistor count of today's microprocessors, power dissipation is becoming a critical component of system design complexity. Thermal and po...
