Tuning a configurable cache subsystem to an application can greatly reduce memory hierarchy energy consumption. Previous tuning methods use a level one configurable cache only, or...
—Since many embedded systems execute a predefined set of programs, tuning system components to application programs and data is the approach chosen by many design techniques to o...
Previous work has shown that cache line sizes impact performance differently for different desktop programs – some programs work better with small line sizes, others with larger...
We describe an automated environment to assist a system-on-achip designer to tune a microprocessor core to a particular application program that will run on the microprocessor, an...

The excessive complexity of both machine architectures and applications have made it difficult for compilers to statically model and predict application behavior. This observatio...
