: - A filter cache is proposed at a higher level than the L1 (main) cache in the memory hierarchy and is much smaller. The typical size of filter cache is of the order of 512 Bytes...
With the increasing performance gap between the processor and the memory, the importance of caches is increasing for high performance processors. However, with reducing feature si...
The paper introduces Network-on-Chip (NoC) design methodology and low cost mechanisms for supporting efficient cache access and cache coherency in future high-performance Chip Mul...
