Replacement policy, one of the key factors determining the effectiveness of a cache, becomes even more important with latest technological trends toward highly associative caches....

Cache memories currently treat all blocks as if they were equally important, but this assumption of equally importance is not always valid. For instance, not all blocks deserve to...
Cache optimizations typically include code transformations to increase the locality of memory accesses. An orthogonal approach is to enable for latency hiding by introducing prefet...
Application-specific system-on-chip platforms create the opportunity to customize the cache configuration for optimal performance with minimal chip estate. Simulation, in partic...
Abstract. The increasing gap of processor and main memory performance underlines the need for cache-optimizations, especially on memoryintensive applications. Tools which are able ...
