Data intensive service functions such as memory allocation/de-allocation, data prefetching, and data relocation can pollute processor cache in conventional systems since the same ...
This paper proposes a combination of circuit and architectural techniques to maximize leakage power reduction in embedded processor on-chip caches. It targets cache peripheral cir...
