Improving Data Locality by Chunking
Cache memories were invented to decouple fast processors from slow memories. However, this decoupling is only partial, and many researchers have attempted to improve cache use by p...

Data cache locking for higher program predictability
Caches have become increasingly important with the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they are a source of unpredictability due to their characteristi...

Lightweight set buffer: low power data cache for multimedia application
A new architectural technique to reduce power dissipation in data caches is proposed. In multimedia applications, a major portion of data cache accesses hit in the same cache set ...

Cache Configuration Exploration on Prototyping Platforms
We describe cache architecture, intended for prototype-oriented IC platforms, that automatically finds the best cache configuration for a particular application. The cache itself ...

On the Effects of Content Compression on Web Cache Performance
Compression is widely used to reduce data transmission costs, but its impact on the performance of network entities such as web caches has not yet been studied. In this paper, we ...

Asymptotic Insensitivity of Least-Recently-Used Caching to Statistical Dependency
Abstract— We investigate a widely popular Least-RecentlyUsed (LRU) cache replacement algorithm with semi-Markov modulated requests. Semi-Markov processes provide the flexibility...

Compiler-Directed Resource Management for Active Code Regions
Recent studies on program execution behavior reveal that a large amount of execution time is spent in small frequently executed regions of code. Whereas adaptive cache management ...

DYNORA: A New Caching Technique
Cache design for high performance computing requires the realization of two seemingly disjoint goals of higher hit ratios at reduced access times. Recent research advocates the us...
