Caches enhance the performance of multiprocessors by reducing network trac and average memory access latency. However, cache-based systems must address the problem of cache coher...
We present an extension to an existing SPARC V8 instruction set simulator, SimICS, to support accurate profiling of branches and instruction cache misses. SimICS had previously su...
1 Developing modern integrated and embedded systems require well-designed processes to ensure flexibility and independency. These features are related to exchangeability of hardw...
