A Model for Timing Errors in Processors with Parameter Variation
Parameter variation in integrated circuits causes sections of a chip to be slower than others. To prevent any resulting timing errors, designers have traditionally designed for th...

EVAL: Utilizing processors with variation-induced timing errors
Parameter variation in integrated circuits causes sections of a chip to be slower than others. If, to prevent any resulting timing errors, we design processors for worst-case para...

Threshold Voltage Variation Effects on Aging-Related Hard Failure Rates
Abstract— This paper quantifies the impact of threshold voltage variation on aging-related hard failure rates in a highperformance 65nm processor. Simulations show that threshol...

Mitigating Parameter Variation with Dynamic Fine-Grain Body Biasing
Parameter variation is detrimental to a processor’s frequency and leakage power. One proposed technique to mitigate it is Fine-Grain Body Biasing (FGBB), where different parts o...
