Soft error benchmarking of L2 caches with PARMA
The amount of charge stored in an SRAM cell shrinks rapidly with each technology generation thus increasingly exposing caches to soft errors. Benchmarking the FIT rate of caches d...

Vulnerability analysis of L2 cache elements to single event upsets
Memory elements are the most vulnerable system component to soft errors. Since memory elements in cache arrays consume a large fraction of the die in modern microprocessors, the p...

Self-Adaptive Data Caches for Soft-Error Reliability
Soft-error induced reliability problems have become a major challenge in designing new generation microprocessors. Due to the on-chip caches' dominant share in die area and tr...

Balancing Performance and Reliability in the Memory Hierarchy
Cosmic-ray induced soft errors in cache memories are becoming a major threat to the reliability of microprocessor-based systems. In this paper, we present a new method to accurate...

Predicting Inter-Thread Cache Contention on a Chip Multi-Processor Architecture
This paper studies the impact of L2 cache sharing on threads that simultaneously share the cache, on a Chip Multi-Processor (CMP) architecture. Cache sharing impacts threads non-u...
