We recognize two trends in router design: increasing pressure to extend the set of services provided by the router and increasing diversity in the hardware components used to cons...
—This paper proposes a programmable geometry engine (GE) reducing the expensive internal buffers and register files of the conventional programmable GEs and sharing datapaths of ...
This paper describes the authors experience with teaching VHDL (and more recently, Verilog) to undergraduate and graduate students at WPI and to engineers through various short co...
Many applications require protection of secret or sensitive information, from sensor nodes and embedded applications to large distributed systems. The confidentiality of data can b...
Improved branch prediction accuracy is essential to sustaining instruction throughput with today’s deep pipelines. We introduce piecewise linear branch prediction, an idealized ...
