Caches play an important role in embedded systems by bridging the performance gap between high speed processors and slow memory. At the same time, caches introduce imprecision in ...
Cache misses form a major bottleneck for memory-intensive applications, due to the significant latency of main memory accesses. Loop tiling, in conjunction with other program tran...
Conventional processors use a fully-associative store queue (SQ) to implement store-load forwarding. Associative search latency does not scale well to capacities and bandwidths re...
Embedded control systems with hard real-time constraints require that deadlines are met at all times or the system may malfunction with potentially catastrophic consequences. Sched...
Latency is a fundamental problem for all distributed systems including digital libraries. To reduce user perceived delays both caching – keeping accessed objects for future use ...
