Utilizing the nonuniform latencies of SDRAM devices, access reordering mechanisms alter the sequence of main memory access streams to reduce the observed access latency. Using a r...
Caches are organized at a line-size granularity to exploit spatial locality. However, when spatial locality is low, many words in the cache line are not used. Unused words occupy ...
