A Dynamic Pressure-Aware Associative Placement Strategy for Large Scale Chip Multiprocessors
This paper describes dynamic pressure-aware associative placement (DPAP), a novel distributed cache management scheme for large-scale chip multiprocessors. Our work is motivated by...

A dynamic code placement technique for scratchpad memory using postpass optimization
In this paper, we propose a fully automatic dynamic scratchpad memory (SPM) management technique for instructions. Our technique loads required code segments into the SPM on deman...

Reducing memory reference energy with opportunistic virtual caching
Most modern cores perform a highly-associative translation look aside buffer (TLB) lookup on every memory access. These designs often hide the TLB lookup latency by overlapping it...

Translation caching: skip, don't walk (the page table)
This paper explores the design space of MMU caches that accelerate virtual-to-physical address translation in processor architectures, such as x86-64, that use a radix tree page t...
