RESUMO

With the constant evolution of processors architecture, its getting even bigger the overhead generated with memory access. Trying to avoid this problem, some processors developers are using several techniques to improve the performance, as the use of cache memories. By the otherside, cache memories cannot supply all their needs, thats why its important some new technique that could use better the cache memory. Working on this problem, some authors are using reconfigurable computing to improve the cache memorys performance. This work analyses the reconfiguration of the cache memory associativity algorithm, and propose some improvements on this algorithm to better use its resources, showing some practical results from simulations with several cache organizations.
