arXiv:2209. 00188v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-latency load requests continue to limit the performance of high-performance processors.
The paper proposes DCO, a dynamic cache orchestration scheme for multi-core AI accelerators that uses application-aware policies and dataflow information to guide cache replacement, bypass decisions, and thrashing mitigation. Using a cycle-accurate simulator, the authors demonstrate up to 1.80× speedup over conventional cache architectures and validate the approach with an analytical model and RTL implementation. The design occupies 0.064 mm² on a 15 nm process and operates at 2 GHz, showing that a shared system-level cache can simplify programming while boosting performance for large language model workloads.
HoliBench is a modular benchmarking and deployment toolkit that jointly measures accuracy, latency, and energy for foundation models across a wide range of devices, from single-board computers to GPU servers. It provides a platform abstraction layer that calibrates cross-device measurements and supports multiple model modalities, inference engines, and quantization levels. Using HoliBench, the authors evaluated 20 models on 7 device types, revealing tradeoffs such as limited latency gains from quantization on low‑precision hardware and diminishing accuracy returns relative to energy consumption, while also showing that single-model profiles can predict multi-model pipeline performance within a few percent.
