Aggressive software speculation holds significant potential, because it enables program transformations to reduce the program’s critical path. Like any form of speculation, how...
Power-efficient design requires reducing power dissipation in all parts of the design and during all stages of the design process subject to constraints on the system performance ...
Optimizing programs at run-time provides opportunities to apply aggressive optimizations to programs based on information that was not available at compile time. At run time, prog...
Currently, hardware intellectual property (IP) is delivered at vels of abstraction: hard, firm, and soft. In order to further enhance performance, efficiency, and flexibility of I...
This paper presents a design methodology, called common-case computation (CCC), and new design automation algorithms for optimizing power consumption or performance. The proposed ...
