Drowsy region-based caches: minimizing both dynamic and static power dissipation
Power consumption within the memory hierarchy grows in importance as on-chip data caches occupy increasingly greater die area. Among dynamic power conservation schemes, horizontal...

Leakage power reduction of embedded memories on FPGAs through location assignment
Transistor leakage is poised to become the dominant source of power dissipation in digital systems, and reconfigurable devices are not immune to this problem. Modern FPGAs already...

Snug set-associative caches: reducing leakage power while improving performance
As transistors keep shrinking and on-chip data caches keep growing, static power dissipation due to leakage of caches takes an increasing fraction of total power in processors. Se...

Using Coherence Information and Decay Techniques to Optimize L2 Cache Leakage in CMPs
This paper evaluates several techniques to save leakage in CMP L2 caches by selectively switching off the less used lines. We primarily focus on private snoopy L2 caches. In this c...

Evaluating Run-Time Techniques for Leakage Power Reduction
While some leakage power reduction techniques require modification of process technology achieving savings at the fabrication stage, others are based on circuit-level optimization...
