Title
Energy-Aware Cache Partition Based on Way-Adaptable in CMP
Abstract
Improving processor performance and reducing energy consumption of the cache has become research topic of the next-generation processor. This paper proposes a new mechanism that implemented in CMP to reduce energy consumption, which based on dynamically way-adaptable cache. The mechanism mainly consists of way reallocate module and dynamic power control module. Way reallocate module reassign ways between cores based on thread's working set on the execution of the program. Our mechanism implements low power consumption by dynamic power control module. The proposed scheme based on dynamically way-adaptable cache is implemented and simulated. We applied several programs selected from SPEC2000 as benchmarks. Experiment results show our present scheme can reduce power consumption 18.6%, 14.7% on average with little performance degrade or no performance degrade.
