Instruction Fetching: Coping with Code Bloat
Previous research has shown that the SPEC benchmarks achieve low miss ratios in relatively small instruction caches. This paper presents evidence that current software-development...

Vx32: Lightweight User-level Sandboxing on the x86
Code sandboxing is useful for many purposes, but most sandboxing techniques require kernel modifications, do not completely isolate guest code, or incur substantial performance co...

Prefetching-aware cache line turnoff for saving leakage energy
Abstract— While numerous prior studies focused on performance and energy optimizations for caches, their interactions have received much less attention. This paper studies this i...

Optimal task placement to improve cache performance
Most recent embedded systems use caches to improve their average performance. Current timing analyses are able to compute safe timing guarantees for these systems, if tasks are ru...
