Selective, accurate, and timely self-invalidation using last-touch prediction
Communication in cache-coherent distributed shared memory (DSM) often requires invalidating (or writing back) cached copies of a memory block, incurring high overheads. This paper...

Generic Database Cost Models for Hierarchical Memory Systems
Accurate prediction of operator execution time is a prerequisite for database query optimization. Although extensively studied for conventional disk-based DBMSs, cost modeling in ...

Data Caches in Multitasking Hard Real-Time Systems
Data caches are essential in modern processors, bridging the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they yield very complex performance models, which make...

Compile-time decided instruction cache locking using worst-case execution paths
Caches are notorious for their unpredictability. It is difficult or even impossible to predict if a memory access results in a definite cache hit or miss. This unpredictability i...
