The block of memory that is transferred to a memory cache. The cache line is generally fixed in size, typically ranging from 16 to 256 bytes. The effectiveness of the line size depends on the ...

Editor's Note: Multicore architectures find use across a diverse range of applications thanks to their performance and efficiency. By combining several general-purpose MCU cores — or MCU cores and ...

The memory hierarchy (including caches and main memory) can consume as much as 50% of an embedded system power. This power is very application dependent, and tuning caches for a given application is a ...

We have described and applied a technique for selection of processor cache configurations for low power using a parameter defined as a product of the cache miss rate and cache size. 1. Introduction ...

Since the earliest days of microprocessors, system designers have been plagued by a problem in which the speed of the CPU's operation exceeded the bandwidth of the memory subsystem to which it was ...

If multiple devices, such as the CPU and peripherals, access the same cacheable memory region, cache and memory can become incoherent. This is illustrated in Figure 7. Suppose the CPU accesses a ...
