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...

Using Virtual Load/Store Queues (VLSQs) to Reduce the Negative Effects of Reordered Memory Instructions
The use of large instruction windows coupled with aggressive out-oforder and prefetching capabilities has provided significant improvements in processor performance. In this paper...

Reducing Exit Stub Memory Consumption in Code Caches
Abstract. The interest in translation-based virtual execution environments (VEEs) is growing with the recognition of their importance in a variety of applications. However, due to ...

The Filter Cache: An Energy Efficient Memory Structure
Most modern microprocessors employ one or two levels of on-chip caches in order to improve performance. These caches are typically implemented with static RAM cells and often occu...

Location cache: a low-power L2 cache system
While set-associative caches incur fewer misses than directmapped caches, they typically have slower hit times and higher power consumption, when multiple tag and data banks are p...
