The memory hierarchy of a system can consume up to 50% of microprocessor system power. Previous work has shown that tuning a configurable cache to a particular application can red...
—Caches ideally should have low miss rates and short access times, and should be power efficient at the same time. Such design goals are often contradictory in practice. Recent f...
This paper presents the study of running several core multimedia applications on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) architecture and derives design principles for multimedia soft...

Loop caches provide an effective method for decreasing memory hierarchy energy consumption by storing frequently executed code in a more energy efficient structure than the level ...
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have been proposed to provide cheap, easily deployable and robust Internet access. The dominant Internet-access traffic from clients causes a congest...
