Hardware Support for Control Transfers in Code Caches
Many dynamic optimization and/or binary translation systems hold optimized/translated superblocks in a code cache. Conventional code caching systems suffer from overheads when con...

A New Hardware Monitor Design to Measure Data Structure-Specific Cache Eviction Information
In this paper, we propose a hardware performance monitor that provides support not only for measuring cache misses and the addresses associated with them, but also for determining...

Cache aware compression for processor debug support
—During post-silicon processor debugging, we need to frequently capture and dump out the internal state of the processor. Since internal state constitutes all memory elements, th...

Evaluating the impact of dynamic binary translation systems on hardware cache performance
Dynamic binary translation systems enable a wide range of applications such as program instrumentation, optimization, and security. DBTs use a software code cache to store previou...
