| Abstract(in English) | We have proposed a novel cache architecture for low power consumption, called "Adaptive Way-Predicting Cache (AWP cache)". The AWP cache has three different operation modes, and dynamically switches the modes according to the behavior of the memory reference when program is executed. To analyze the effectiveness of the AWP cache, we evaluate the energy consumption and the performance based on the simulation and the circuit design. We have evaluated the AWP cache using many benchmarks. As the results, it is observed that the performance improvement achieved by the AWP cache is about 25% in the best case, compared to the WP cache. And it is observed that the energy improvement achieved by the AWP cache is about 60% in the best case, compared to the WP cache. |
