    2015-Beckmann-Sanchez-Cache Calculus-Modeling Caches through Differential Equations
    We present cache calculus, a technique that models cache behavior as a system of ordinary differential equations, letting standard calculus techniques find simple and accurate solutions of cache performance for common access patterns.
