Balanced Cache: Reducing Conflict Misses of Direct-Mapped Caches
Level one cache normally resides on a processor’s critical path, which determines the clock frequency. Directmapped caches exhibit fast access time but poor hit rates compared w...

Energy-performance design space exploration in SMT architectures exploiting selective load value predictions
—This paper presents a design space exploration of a selective load value prediction scheme suitable for energyaware Simultaneous Multi-Threaded (SMT) architectures. A load value...

Branch-mispredict level parallelism (BLP) for control independence
A microprocessor's performance is fundamentally limited by the rate at which it can resolve branch mispredictions. Control independence (CI) architectures look for useful con...

Streamlining Data Cache Access with Fast Address Calculation
For many programs, especially integer codes, untolerated load instruction latencies account for a significant portion of total execution time. In this paper, we present the desig...

A Cross-Architectural Interface for Code Cache Manipulation
Software code caches help amortize the overhead of dynamic binary transformation by enabling reuse of transformed code. Since code caches contain a potentiallyaltered copy of ever...
