Microcaches
We describe a radically new cache architecture and demonstrate that it offers a huge reduction in cache cost, size and power consumption whilst maintaining performance on a wide ra...

Overlooking roots: a framework for making nondeferred reference-counting garbage collection fast
Numerous optimizations exist for improving the performance of nondeferred reference-counting (RC) garbage collection. Their designs are ad hoc, intended to exploit different count...

Compile-time decided instruction cache locking using worst-case execution paths
Caches are notorious for their unpredictability. It is difficult or even impossible to predict if a memory access results in a definite cache hit or miss. This unpredictability i...

Virtual Page Tag Reduction for Low-power TLBs
We present a methodology for a power-optimized, software-controlled Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) organization. A highly reduced number of Virtual Page Number (VPN) bits suf...

Alias Analysis by Means of a Model Checker
We study the application of a standard model checker tool, Spin, to the well-known problem of computing a may-alias relation for a C program. A precise may-alias relation can signi...
