Due to increasing power densities, both on-chip average and peak temperatures are fast becoming a serious bottleneck in processor design. This is due to the cost of removing the h...
A path confidence estimate indicates the likelihood that the processor is currently fetching correct path instructions. Accurate path confidence prediction is critical for applica...
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) combine lithographically formed mechanical structures with electrical elements to create physical systems that operate on the scale of micr...
This paper explores the scalability of the Stream Processor architecture along the instruction-, data-, and thread-level parallelism dimensions. We develop detailed VLSI-cost and ...
