| Abstract | Estimation of static and dynamic energy of caches is critical for high-performance low-power designs. Commercial CAD tools performing energy estimation statically are not aware of the changing operating and environmental conditions which makes the problem of energy estimation more dynamic in nature. It is worsened by process induced variations of low level parameters like threshold voltage and channel length. In this paper we present MODEST, a proposal for estimating the static and dynamic energy of caches taking into account spatial variations of physical parameters, temporal changes of supply voltage and environmental factors like temperature. It can be used to estimate the energy of different blocks of a cache based on a combination empirical data and analytical equations. The observed maximum and median error between MODEST and HSPICE energyestimates for 22,500 samples is around 7.8% and 0.5% respectively. As a case study, using MODEST, we propose a two step iterative optimization procedure involving Dual-Vth assignment and standby supply voltage minimization for reclaiming energy-constrained caches. The observed energy reduction is around 50.8% for the most-leaky Cache. A speed-up of 750X over conventional hard-coded implementation for such optimizations is achieved. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
