Reducing Power Consumption for High-Associativity Data Caches in Embedded Processors
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...

Multiple sleep mode leakage control for cache peripheral circuits in embedded processors
This paper proposes a combination of circuit and architectural techniques to maximize leakage power reduction in embedded processor on-chip caches. It targets cache peripheral cir...

Bounding Preemption Delay within Data Cache Reference Patterns for Real-Time Tasks
Caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures to hide, in part, the increasing gap between processor speed and memory access times. While the effect of caches on timi...

Compile-time decided instruction cache locking using worst-case execution paths
Caches are notorious for their unpredictability. It is difficult or even impossible to predict if a memory access results in a definite cache hit or miss. This unpredictability i...
