Caches may consume half of a microprocessor’s total power and cache misses incur accessing off-chip memory, which is both time consuming and energy costly. Therefore, minimizing...
On-chip L1 and L2 caches represent a sizeable fraction of the total power consumption of microprocessors. In deep sub-micron technology, the subthreshold leakage power is becoming...
Power consumption and DRAM latencies are serious concerns in modern chip-multiprocessor (CMP or multi-core) based compute systems. The management of the DRAM row buffer can signif...
