The Potential of Temperature-Aware Configurable Cache on Energy Reduction

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Active power used to be the primary contributor to total power
dissipation of CMOS designs, but with the technology scaling, the share of
leakage in total power consumption of digital systems continues to grow.
Moreover, temperature is another factor that exponentially increases the
leakage current. In this paper, we show the effects of temperature and
technology nodes on the optimal (minimum-energy-consuming) cache
configuration for low energy embedded systems. We show that a
temperature-aware configurable cache is an effective way to save energy in
finer technologies when the embedded system may be used in different
temperatures. Our results show that using a temperature-aware configurable
cache, up to 66% energy can be saved with only 1% performance penalty for
instruction cache and 74% energy saving with 4.7% performance loss for
data cache.
