Most database systems (DBMSs) today are operating on servers equipped with magnetic disks. In our contribution, we want to motivate the use of two emerging and striking technologi...
Focusing on embedded applications, scratchpad memories (SPMs) look like a best-compromise solution when taking into account performance, energy consumption and die area. The main ...
As increasingly larger memories are used to bridge the widening gap between processor and disk speeds, main memory energy consumption is becoming increasingly dominant. Even thoug...
While set-associative caches incur fewer misses than directmapped caches, they typically have slower hit times and higher power consumption, when multiple tag and data banks are p...
The performance of future manycore processors will only scale with the number of integrated cores if there is a corresponding increase in memory bandwidth. Projected scaling of el...
