The on-chip memory is a dominant source of power and energy consumption in modern and future processors. This paper explores the use of a new emerging non-volatile memory technolo...
Dynamic address compression schemes that exploit address locality can help reduce both address bus energy and cost simultaneously with only a small performance penalty. In this wo...

In this paper, we present two methods to reduce leakage energy by dynamically resizing the cache during program execution. The first method monitors the miss rate of the individua...
The proliferation of Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) has led to the integration of large on-chip caches. For scalability reasons, a large on-chip cache is often divided into smaller ba...
