One-Level Cache Memory Design for Scalable SMT Architectures
The cache hierarchy design in existing SMT and superscalar processors is optimized for latency, but not for bandwidth. The size of the L1 data cache did not scale over the past de...

Access Region Locality for High-Bandwidth Processor Memory System Design
This paper studies an interesting yet less explored behavior of memory access instructions, called access region locality. Unlike the traditional temporal and spatial data localit...

Exploiting Spatial Locality in Data Caches Using Spatial Footprints
Modern cache designs exploit spatial locality by fetching large blocks of data called cache lines on a cache miss. Subsequent references to words within the same cache line result...

The Design and Analysis of a Cache Architecture for Texture Mapping
The effectiveness of texture mapping in enhancing the realism of computer generated imagery has made support for real-time texture mapping a critical part of graphics pipelines. D...

Scalable Cache Miss Handling for High Memory-Level Parallelism
Recently-proposed processor microarchitectures for high Memory Level Parallelism (MLP) promise substantial performance gains. Unfortunately, current cache hierarchies have Miss-Ha...
