  • Abstract
    Storing very long address traces for the simulation of cache configurations requires vast amounts of storage space. This storage space requirement can be lowered considerably using lossless compression of the original address trace. In this paper a new real-time address trace compression method is presented based on the RECET (Real-time Cache Evaluation Tool) platform. With the RECET address trace compression method a compression ratio is achieved that is almost 70 per cent higher than that of earlier published methods.
