The increasing gap in processor and memory speeds has forced microprocessors to rely on deep cache hierarchies to keep the processors from starving for data. For many applications...
Media applications are characterized by large amounts of available parallelism, little data reuse, and a high computation to memory access ratio. While these characteristics are p...

Shade is an instruction-set simulator and custom trace generator. Application programs are executed and traced under the control of a user-supplied trace analyzer. To reduce commu...
From personal software to advanced systems, caching mechanisms have steadfastly been a ubiquitous means for reducing workloads. It is no surprise, then, that under the grid and clu...
