  2. 1. 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

  4. 2. Techniques to Cancel Execution Early to Improve Processor Efficiency

    Author : Mafijul Islam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    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

  5. 3. Statistical Compression Cache Designs

    Author : Angelos Arelakis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cache; Floating-point compression; Data Compression; Huffman Coding; Statistical Compression; Value Locality; Memory; Hybrid Compression;

    Abstract : On-chip caches are essential as they bridge the growing speed-gap between off-chip memory and processors. To this end, processing cores are sacrificed for more cache space in the chip's real estate, possibly affecting the cache access time and power dissipation. READ MORE

  6. 4. "I am walking in my city" : The Production of Locality in Githa Hariharan’s In Times of Siege, Vikram Chandra’s Love and Longing in Bombay, and Amit Chaudhuri’s Freedom Song

    Author : Anna Stibe; Åke Bergvall; Mark Troy; Nahem Yousaf; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Arjun Appadurai; Githa Hariharan; Vikram Chandra; Amit Chaudhuri; the production of locality; work of the imagination; agency; haunting; storytelling; secularism; Indian English literature; cities.; English; Engelska;

    Abstract : At the center of this study are three Indian novels with an urban setting and dealing with political and social issues of the 1990s: Githa Hariharan’s In Times of Siege (2003), Vikram Chandra’s Love and Longing in Bombay (1997) and Amit Chaudhuri’s Freedom Song (1998). The Delhi of In Times of Siege is portrayed as a city infused with power but haunted by a troubled past that is brought to the present by a dissenting professor of history. READ MORE

  7. 5. 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
