This paper presents a method for power and ground (p/g) network routing for high speed CMOS chips with multiple p/g pads. Our objective is not to reduce the total amount of the gr...
Design of wakeup-free issue queues is becoming desirable due to the increasing complexity associated with broadcast-based instruction wakeup. The effectiveness of most wakeup-free...

For highest performance, a modern microprocessor must be able to determine if an instruction is ready in the same cycle in which it is to be selected for execution. This creates a...
Fetch gating mechanisms have been proposed to gate the processor pipeline to reduce the wasted energy consumption due to wrongpath (i.e. mis-speculated) instructions. These scheme...
