| **Refreshments at 4:00pm, Program at 4:15** New techniques for low-power cache design Power consumption has become an inevitable constraint in design of modern microprocessors. Due to large sizes and extremely high access rate, on-chip caches dissipate a significant portion of the total power of today's processors. This talk will present three new architectural techniques for designing low-energy caches. The first one is a history-based tag-comparison, which exploits program execution footprints to detect and eliminate unnecessary tag checks. The second one is a dynamic voltage variation, which lowers supply voltage on cache-hit and increases it on cache miss. Finally, the third one is a compiler-based cache leakage reduction which exploits density of accesses. Experimental evaluation and issues of practical implementation will be discussed. Who should attend? Anyone interested in new developments and design issues of modern energy-efficient computing systems. The talk is suited for both hardware and software developers. Students, researchers and professionals will find value in this talk. Presenter: Vasily Moshnyaga, Professor Department of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, Fukuoka University, Japan Biography: Vasily Moshnyaga received Computer Engineering Degree with Honors from Technical State University, Sevastopol, USSR in 1980 and Ph.D. in computer engineering from the Moscow Aviation Institute in 1986. Till 1992 he was a faculty of Technical University of Moldova, Chisinau, Moldova. From 1992 to 1998 he was a lecture at the Department of Electronics and Communication of Kyoto University, Japan. Since 1998 he has been with Fukuoka University, Japan, where he is currently a Professor at the Department of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science. His research interests are in the areas of computer architecture, computer arithmetic, video processing, VLSI design and design methodologies with a particular emphasis on energy-efficient design techniques. He has authored or co-authored over 150 referred journal and conference publications and has five patents. Dr. Moshnyaga is a member of organizing committees of the Asia-Pacific Design Automation Conference, Asia Pacific Conference on Chip Design Languages, and a technical program committee member of several conferences including IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, ACM/IEE International Symposium on Low-Power Electronics and Design, IEEE System on Chip Conference, etc. He is an Associate Editor of the IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics, Communication and Computer Sciences. Dr. Moshnyaga is a senior member of IEEE, Computer System Society and Circuits and System Society, a member of Information Processing Society of Japan, and Engineering Sciences Society of Japan.
