Memory hierarchy reconfiguration for energy and performance in general-purpose processor architectures
Conventional microarchitectures choose a single memory hierarchy design point targeted at the average application. In this paper, we propose a cache and TLB layout and design that...

Moguls: a model to explore the memory hierarchy for bandwidth improvements
In recent years, the increasing number of processor cores and limited increases in main memory bandwidth have led to the problem of the bandwidth wall, where memory bandwidth is b...

Metrics and models for reordering transformations
Irregular applications frequently exhibit poor performance on contemporary computer architectures, in large part because of their inefficient use of the memory hierarchy. Runtime ...

Automated and accurate cache behavior analysis for codes with irregular access patterns
Abstract. The memory hierarchy plays an essential role in the performance of current computers, thus good analysis tools that help predict and understand its behavior are required....

A thermally-aware performance analysis of vertically integrated (3-D) processor-memory hierarchy
Three-dimensional (3-D) integrated circuits have emerged as promising candidates to overcome the interconnect bottlenecks of nanometer scale designs. While they offer several othe...
