This paper proposes a novel L1 data cache design with dualversioning SRAM cells (dvSRAM) for chip multi-processors (CMP) that implement optimistic concurrency proposals. In this n...
Conventional prefetching schemes regard prediction accuracy as important because useless data prefetched by a faulty prediction may pollute the cache. If prefetching requires cons...
Extreme technology integration in the sub-micron regime comes with a rapid rise in heat dissipation and power density for modern processors. Dynamic voltage scaling is a widely us...
