The use of large instruction windows coupled with aggressive out-oforder and prefetching capabilities has provided significant improvements in processor performance. In this paper...
This paper proposes a new approach using way prediction for achieving high performance and low energy consumption of set-associative caches. By accessing only a single cache way p...
