WCET-centric partial instruction cache locking
Caches play an important role in embedded systems by bridging the performance gap between high speed processors and slow memory. At the same time, caches introduce imprecision in ...

Using Incorrect Speculation to Prefetch Data in a Concurrent Multithreaded Processor
Concurrent multithreaded architectures exploit both instruction-level and thread-level parallelism through a combination of branch prediction and thread-level control speculation. ...

Guaranteeing instruction fetch behavior with a lookahead instruction fetch engine (LIFE)
Instruction fetch behavior has been shown to be very regular and predictable, even for diverse application areas. In this work, we propose the Lookahead Instruction Fetch Engine (...

Time-Predictable Task Preemption for Real-Time Systems with Direct-Mapped Instruction Cache
Modern processors used in embedded systems are becoming increasingly powerful, having features like caches and pipelines to speedup execution. While execution speed of embedded so...

The Minimax Cache: An Energy-Efficient Framework for Media Processors
This work is based on our philosophy of providing interlayer system-level power awareness in computing systems [26, 27]. Here, we couple this approach with our vision of multipart...
