Power and performance of read-write aware Hybrid Caches with non-volatile memories
—Caches made of non-volatile memory technologies, such as Magnetic RAM (MRAM) and Phase-change RAM (PRAM), offer dramatically different power-performance characteristics when com...

Caches as Filters: A New Approach to Cache Analysis
As the processor-memory performance gap continues to grow, so does the need for effective tools and metrics to guide the design of efficient memory hierarchies to bridge that gap....

Leveraging High Performance Data Cache Techniques to Save Power in Embedded Systems
Voltage scaling reduces leakage power for cache lines unlikely to be referenced soon. Partitioning reduces dynamic power via smaller, specialized structures. We combine approaches,...

Memory hierarchy reconfiguration for energy and performance in general-purpose processor architectures
Conventional microarchitectures choose a single memory hierarchy design point targeted at the average application. In this paper, we propose a cache and TLB layout and design that...
