Cache Power Budgeting for Performance

Power is arguably the critical resource in computer system design today. In this work, we focus on maximizing performance of a chip multiprocessor (CMP) system, for a given power budget, by developing techniques to budget power between processor cores and caches. Dynamic cache configuration can reduce cache capacity and associativity, thereby freeing up chip power, but may increase the miss rat...
