Drowsy region-based caches: minimizing both dynamic and static power dissipation
Power consumption within the memory hierarchy grows in importance as on-chip data caches occupy increasingly greater die area. Among dynamic power conservation schemes, horizontal...

On Reducing Register Pressure and Energy in Multiple-Banked Register Files
The storage for speculative values in superscalar processors is one of the main sources of complexity and power dissipation. In this paper, we present a novel technique to reduce ...

OS-aware tuning: improving instruction cache energy efficiency on system workloads
Low power has been considered as an important issue in instruction cache (I-cache) designs. Several studies have shown that the I-cache can be tuned to reduce power. These techniq...

Snug set-associative caches: reducing leakage power while improving performance
As transistors keep shrinking and on-chip data caches keep growing, static power dissipation due to leakage of caches takes an increasing fraction of total power in processors. Se...
