Fast configurable-cache tuning with a unified second-level cache
Tuning a configurable cache subsystem to an application can greatly reduce memory hierarchy energy consumption. Previous tuning methods use a level one configurable cache only, or...

Towards a Time-predictable Dual-Issue Microprocessor: The Patmos Approach
Current processors are optimized for average case performance, often leading to a high worst-case execution time (WCET). Many architectural features that increase the average case...
