    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; processor design; energy-efficiency; narrow-width cache; instruction reuse; zero-value cache; resource-efficient; narrow-width load; complexity-effective; small value locality; register file cache; frequent value locality; trivial instruction; silent load; high-performance; zero load;

    Abstract : The evolution of computer systems to continuously improve execution efficiency has traditionally embraced various approaches across microprocessor generations. Unfortunately, contemporary processors still suffer from several inefficiencies although they offer an unprecedented level of computing capabilities. READ MORE

  2. 2. Design Considerations of Value-aware Caches

    Author : Angelos Arelakis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Memory; Data Compression; Statistical-based Compression; Value Locality; Cache; Huffman Coding;

    Abstract : On-chip cache memories are instrumental in tackling several performance and energy issues facing contemporary and future microprocessor chip architectures. First, they are key to bridge the growing speed-gap between memory and processors. READ MORE

  3. 3. Compression Techniques for Code Size and Data Bandwidth Reduction

    Author : Martin Thuresson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; static code compression; high performance; Computer architecture; data link compression;

    Abstract : A challenge in the design of high performance computer systems is how to transferdata efficiently between main memory and the faster and smaller memory located onthe processor chip. Main memory holds both the program to be executed and the datait needs to perform its tasks. READ MORE
