Time-sensitivity-aware shared cache architecture for multi-core embedded systems

In embedded systems such as automotive systems, multi-core processors are expected to improve performance and reduce manufacturing cost by integrating multiple functions on a single chip. However, inter-core interference in shared last-level cache (LLC) results in increased and unpredictable execution times for time-sensitive tasks (TSTs), which have (soft) timing constraints, thereby increasing the deadline miss rates of such systems. In this...
