The dynamic interplay between processor speed and memory access times has rendered cache performance a critical determinant of computing efficiency. As modern systems increasingly rely on hierarchical ...
One of the greatest challenges facing the designers of many-core processors is resource contention. The chart below visually lays out the problem of resource contention, but for most of us the idea is ...
Cache memory significantly reduces time and power consumption for memory access in systems-on-chip. Technologies like AMBA protocols facilitate cache coherence and efficient data management across CPU ...
System-on-chip (SoC) architects have a new memory technology, last level cache (LLC), to help overcome the design obstacles of bandwidth, latency and power consumption in megachips for advanced driver ...
Researchers at the Tokyo-based startup Sakana AI have developed a new technique that enables language models to use memory more efficiently, helping enterprises cut the costs of building applications ...
Embedded systems demand high performance with minimal power consumption, and the optimisation of scratchpad memory (SPM) plays a critical role in meeting these stringent requirements. SPM, a small ...
Editor’s Note: Demand for increasing functionality and performance in systems designs continues to drive the need for more memory even as hardware engineers balance the dynamics of system capability, ...

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 ...
Grab the app in the Mac App Store while it’s free to get a gauge that lets you quickly access memory information, including which apps are using more than their fair share. Matt Elliott is a senior ...
