Off-chip memory accesses are a major source of power consumption in embedded processors. In order to reduce the amount of traffic between the processor and the off-chip memory as ...
Cache memories are mandatory to bridge the growing gap between CPU speed and main memory access time. Standard cache organizations improve the average execution time but are diffi...
In this papel; we address the severe performance gap caused by high processor clock rates and slow DRAM accesses. We show that even with an aggressive, next-generation memory syst...
Modern microprocessor designs continue to obtain impressive performance gains through increasing clock rates and advances in the parallelism obtained via micro-architecture design...
Abstract--Memory accesses are a major cause of energy consumption for embedded systems and the stack is a frequent target for data accesses. This paper presents a fully software te...
