Memory energy minimization by data compression algorithms, architectures and implementation.

Memory energy minimization by data compression algorithms, architectures and implementation.

Storing data in compressed form is becoming common practice in high-performance systems, where memory bandwidth constitutes a serious bottleneck to program execution speed. In this paper, we suggest hardware-assisted data compression as a tool for reducing energy consumption of processor-based syste...
