Set-associative caches are traditionally managed using hardwarebased lookup and replacement schemes that have high energy overheads. Ideally, the caching strategy should be tailor...

Modern embedded microprocessors use low power on-chip memories called scratch-pad memories to store frequently executed instructions and data. Unlike traditional caches, scratch-p...

In this paper, we propose a technique that uses an additional mini cache, the L0-Cache, located between the instruction cache I-Cache and the CPU core. This mechanism can provid...
