Cache memory significantly reduces time and power consumption for memory access in systems-on-chip. Technologies like AMBA protocols facilitate cache coherence and efficient data management across CPU ...

Since the dawn of civilization, the computing bottleneck has been the tawdry I/O relationship between disk drives and RAM (random access memory). The emergence of SSDs (solid state drives) loosened ...

A new technical paper titled “Hermes: Accelerating Long-Latency Load Requests via Perceptron-Based Off-Chip Load Prediction” was published by researchers at ETH Zurich, Intel Processor Architecture ...

As memory capacity has outstripped TLB coverage, large data applications suffer from frequent page table walks. We investigate two complementary techniques for addressing this cost: reducing the ...

Access to cache files may be needed at times for missing files. If you are looking for a cache viewer tool for viewing cache files on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge, then there are ...

We have described and applied a technique for selection of processor cache configurations for low power using a parameter defined as a product of the cache miss rate and cache size. 1. Introduction ...

Part 2 applies the concepts introduced here to the Blackfin processor. It will be published Monday, February 7. This series reviews techniques you can use to tune DSP system performance, using the ...
