A NUCA substrate for flexible CMP cache sharing
We propose an organization for the on-chip memory system of a chip multiprocessor, in which 16 processors share a 16MB pool of 256 L2 cache banks. The L2 cache is organized as a n...

Flux Caches: What Are They and Are They Useful?
In this paper, we introduce the concept of flux caches envisioned to improve processor performance by dynamically changing the cache organization and implementation. Contrary to t...

A low power front-end for embedded processors using a block-aware instruction set
Energy, power, and area efficiency are critical design concerns for embedded processors. Much of the energy of a typical embedded processor is consumed in the front-end since inst...
