   Asia-Pacific Computer Systems Architecture Conference
                Call For Papers

The Asia-Pacific Computer Systems Architecture Conference (ACSAC'2002)
will be held at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia from 28 January
-
30 January, 2002. Original papers on all aspects of computer systems 
architecture are invited, including, but not restricted to:
 * arithmetic circuits
 * processor design and architecture
 * reconfigurable architectures
 * instruction-level parallelism
 * hardware support for operating systems and languages
 * multiprocessor architectures
 * interconnection networks
 * software structures designed to utilise special hardware features
 * operating systems
 * embedded systems
 * compilers
 * virtual machines

All papers will be fully refereed. Full details of the conference are
available from 
        http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~morris/ACAC2002/index.html

In 2002, ACSAC'2002 is part of Australasian Computer Science Week -
a federation of five conferences covering a wide spectrum of topics
in Computer Science and Engineering.

This represents a great opportunity to visit Australia and interact with
the computer systems architects from "down-under" and the Asia-Pacific
region. Tennis fans should note that the Australian Open preceds the 
conference in Melbourne. Don't languish is a northern hemisphere winter
when you could spend a few days on Australian beaches - or meet a
kangaroo
or koala! We may even resurrect the tradition of a day's sailing before
ACSAC if enough people show interest!

       Cache Performance for Selected SPEC CPU2000 Benchmarks

                        Version 1, Jul 2001


Abstract

The SPEC CPU2000 benchmark suite (http://www.spec.org/osg/cpu2000) is a
collection of 26 compute-intensive, non-trivial programs used to evaluate
the performance of a computer's CPU, memory system, and compilers. The
benchmarks in this suite were chosen to represent real-world applications,
and thus exhibit a wide range of runtime behaviors. On this webpage, we
present functional cache miss ratios and related statistics for selected
benchmarks in the SPEC CPU2000 suite.  Version 1 present data for 11
benchmarks, with further updates forthcoming.

In particular, split L1 cache sizes ranging from 4KB to 1MB with 64B
blocks and associativities of 1, 2, 4, 8 and full. Most of this data
was collected at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with the aid of
the Simplescalar toolset (http://www.simplescalar.org).
