Software-based instruction caching for embedded processors
While hardware instruction caches are present in virtually all general-purpose and high-performance microprocessors today, many embedded processors use SRAM or scratchpad memories...

WCET-Centric Software-controlled Instruction Caches for Hard Real-Time Systems
Cache memories have been extensively used to bridge the gap between high speed processors and relatively slower main memories. However, they are sources of predictability problems...
