Caches are implemented in computing systems because they mitigate the lengthy time that it takes to retrieve data from memory. This serves as the primary motivation for this lab, which is a cache ...

In modern computing systems, cache memory plays a crucial role in bridging the speed gap between the processor and the main memory. Efficient cache design is essential for enhancing system performance ...

Abstract: In this paper we investigate the effects of wide vector instructions on modern processor caches. On the one hand, contemporary processors have large, highly associative caches, which greatly ...

Abstract: This paper presents a dependable cache memory for which associativity can be reconfigured dynamically. The proposed associativity-reconfigurable cache consists of pairs of cache ways. Each ...
