Memory mapped ECC: low-cost error protection for last level caches
This paper presents a novel technique, Memory Mapped ECC, which reduces the cost of providing error correction for SRAM caches. It is important to limit such overheads as processo...

Choosing an Error Protection Scheme for a Microprocessor's L1 Data Cache
Abstract-- We deconstruct and compare the two dominant existing approaches for L1 data cache (L1D) error protection, with respect to performance, L2 cache bandwidth, power, and are...

Mitigating soft error failures for multimedia applications by selective data protection
With advances in process technology, soft errors (SE) are becoming an increasingly critical design concern. Due to their large area and high density, caches are worst hit by soft ...

CPPC: correctable parity protected cache
Due to shrinking feature sizes processors are becoming more vulnerable to soft errors. Write-back caches are particularly vulnerable since they hold dirty data that do not exist i...
