On-the-fly circuit to measure the average working set size

Abstract: "We present two economic methods which estimate the average working set size of a program on the fly with a small constant amount of storage. Both methods are simple enough that they can be implemented inside a VLSI processor chip with small space requirements, or outside the chip to...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "We present two economic methods which estimate the average working set size of a program on the fly with a small constant amount of storage. Both methods are simple enough that they can be implemented inside a VLSI processor chip with small space requirements, or outside the chip to probe the memory reference traffic. The on-the-fly circuit tools that can estimate the average working set size of a program without much loss of accuracy makes unnecessary the problematic and expensive procedures (hardware monitoring or simulation) of collecting the reference traces
Such tools can be used in all studies that require program locality measurements including the study of a program's locality, the effectiveness study of locality improvement techniques, and the study of [sic] optimizing compiler's effect on program locality.
