We evaluate the leakage reduction for both instruction and data cache in presence of drowsy or decay techniques. We discovered that a filter cache, traditionally used for reducing...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to reduce dynamic power in set-associative caches that leverages on a leakage-saving proposal, namely Cache Decay. We thus open...
As transistors keep shrinking and on-chip data caches keep growing, static power dissipation due to leakage of caches takes an increasing fraction of total power in processors. Se...
Recent research suggests that there are large variations in a cache's spatial usage, both within and across programs. Unfortunately, conventional caches typically employ fixe...

Modern embedded processors use data caches with higher and higher degrees of associativity in order to increase performance. A set–associative data cache consumes a significant...
