The performance of SIMD processors is often limited by the time it takes to transfer data between the centralized control unit and the parallel processor array. This is especially...
Designers of FPGA-based systems are increasingly including soft processors—processors implemented in programmable logic—in their designs. Any combination of area, clock freque...
Abstract— PIM Lite is a processor-in-memory prototype implemented in a 0.18 micron logic process. PIM Lite provides a complete working demonstration of a minimal-state, lightweig...

Concurrent multithreaded architectures exploit both instruction-level and thread-level parallelism through a combination of branch prediction and thread-level control speculation. ...
The performance requirements for contemporary microprocessors are increasing as rapidly as their number of applications grows. By accelerating the clock, performance can be gained...
