Abstract [en]
CAMP proposes a hierarchical cache subsystem for multi-core mixed criticality processors, focusing on ensuring worst-case execution time (WCET) predictability in automotive applications. It incorporates criticality-aware locked L1 and L2 caches, reconfigurable at mode change intervals, along with criticality-aware last level cache partitioning. Evaluation using CACOSIM, Moola Multicore simulator, and CACTI simulation tools confirms the suitability of CAMP for keeping high-criticality jobs within timing budgets. A practical case study involving an automotive wake-up controller using the sniper v7.2 architecture simulator further validates its usability in real-world mixed criticality applications. CAMP presents a promising cache architecture for optimized multi-core mixed criticality systems.
