Application Specific Data Trace Cache Design

Increasing disparity between processor speeds and memory access times is a major problem in today’s systems. In this paper we have studied the design of a proposed system i.e. An Application specific Data Trace Cache and have tried to do some modification to the Data Remapping portion of it. We have tried to further improve the benefits of this system by implementing this system with the help of an already existing concept of Cache Conscious Data Structures. Reference locality of data can be improved by changing a program’s data organization and layout. This is the concept behind both cache conscious data structures as well as Data Trace Cache. So we have tried to merge both these strategies to get some more performance benefits.
