Several data compression techniques including Frequent Value Caches are proposed to reduce the energy consumption in the data cache memories. ...
These values can be represented with one byte and the pattern type bits. We propose a new energy-efficient data cache, the Byte-Repeat Pattern Cache, which employs this encoding scheme. ...

Power Efficient Instruction Caches for Embedded Systems
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Unlike loop caches, K-store maps the frequent code in a reserved address space and hence, it can switch between the kernel memory and the instruction cache without any noticeable performance penalty. ...
We compare the performance and energy consumption of our K-store with that of a conventional instruction cache of equal size. ...
In spite of the higher cost associated with this design, the number of off-chip accesses would be much lesser than that of the baseline cache and hence, this design should be highly energy-efficient. ...

Cooperative Energy Efficient Management Scheme for Multimedia Information Dissemination
2014
International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks
In this paper, we cope with the energy efficient management problem in such network, in which both transmission energy and caching energy are considered. ...
Because of the limited energy in each sensor node, energy efficiency problem is crucial to be considered in information centric sensor network. ...
When caching probability is small, the caching energy is small, but the data objects are obtained with larger hops, leading to higher value of transmission energy. ...

Energy-efficient Spin-Transfer Torque RAM cache exploiting additional all-zero-data flags

The proposed design appends additional flags in cache tag arrays and set these additional bits if the corresponding data in the cache line is the zero-valued data in which all data bits are zero. ...
However, large energy requirement of STT-RAM on write operations, resulting in a huge amount of dynamic energy consumption, precludes it from application to on-chip cache designs. ...

In this paper, we propose the first dynamic dictionary-based compression mechanism for L1 data caches. ...
Data cache compression is actively studied as a venue to make better use of onchip transistors, increase apparent capacity of caches, and hide the long memory latencies. ...
The reduction in energy comes at a cost of an additional cycle needed to access non-frequent values. Thus, the PA-DFVC design trades power for performance. ...
