Detailed cache simulation for detecting bottleneck, miss reason and optimization potentialities
Cache locality optimization is an efficient way for reducing the idle time of modern processors in waiting for needed data. This kind of optimization can be achieved either on the...

Enhancing L2 organization for CMPs with a center cell
Chip multiprocessors (CMPs) are becoming a popular way of exploiting ever-increasing number of on-chip transistors. At the same time, the location of data on the chip can play a c...

Limiting the number of dirty cache lines
Abstract—Caches often employ write-back instead of writethrough, since write-back avoids unnecessary transfers for multiple writes to the same block. For several reasons, however...
