When address reference streams exhibit high degrees of spatial and temporal locality, many of the higher order address lines carry redundant information. By caching the higher ord...
The caching behavior of multimedia applications has been described as having high instruction reference locality within small loops, very large working sets, and poor data cache p...
While much work has been devoted to the study of cache behavior during the execution of codes with regular access patterns, little attention has been paid to irregular codes. An i...
