The performance of most embedded systems is critically dependent on the memory hierarchy performance. In particular, higher cache hit rate can provide significant performance boos...
It has been observed that some applications manipulate large amounts of null data. Moreover these zero data often exhibit high spatial locality. On some applications more than 20%...
Energy dissipation in cache memories is becoming a major design issue in embedded microprocessors. Predictive filter cache based instruction cache hierarchy is effective in reduci...
As transistors continue to scale down into the nanometer regime, device leakage currents are becoming the dominant cause of power dissipation in nanometer caches, making it essent...
