In an out-of-order issue processor, instructions are dynamically reordered and issued to function units in their dataready order rather than their original program order to achiev...
— As growing power dissipation and thermal effects disrupted the rising clock frequency trend and threatened to annul Moore’s law, the computing industry has switched its route...
Miniaturization of devices and the ensuing decrease in the threshold voltage has led to a substantial increase in the leakage component of the total processor energy consumption. ...
