Abstract: This paper explores cache models for a simultaneous mult ithreaded processor with mult imedia
enhancements. We start with a wide-issue superscalar processor, enhance it by the simultaneous
multithreading (SMT) technique, by multimedia units, and by an additional on-chip RAM storage.
Our workload is a multithreaded MPEG-2 video decompression algorithm that extensively
uses multimedia units. Various cache models and cache line replacement strategies are simulated
to increase performance of the... (Update)

.... units of a wide issue, out of order superscalar processor [42, 41] Over the last six years, SMT has been broadly studied [22, 23, 21, 45, 24, 43, 35] and Compaq has recently announced that the Alpha 21464 will include SMT [10] As a general purpose throughputenhancing...
.... We choose to double the cache line burst length to 32:4:4:4:4:4:4:4 instead of a costly doubling of the memory bus speed or the bus width (see [17] for a discussion of the trade offs of the memory hierarchy) The diagrams in Fig. 5 show that the required transistor count and...
