Configurations of contemporary DRAM memory systems become increasingly complex. A recent study [5] shows that application performance is highly sensitive to choices of configura...
Embedded systems consisting of the application program ROM, RAM, the embedded processor core, and any custom hardware on a single wafer are becoming increasingly common in applicat...
Modern architectural trends in instruction-level parallelism (ILP) are to increase the computational power of microprocessors significantly. As a result, the demands on memory ha...
Heterogeneous multicores, such as Cell BE processors and GPGPUs, typically do not have caches for their accelerator cores because coherence traffic, cache misses, and latencies fr...
Code compression has been shown to be an effective technique to reduce code size in memory constrained embedded systems. It has also been used as a way to increase cache hit ratio...
