Measuring system performance seems conceptually straightforward. However, the interpretation of the results and predicting future performance remain as exceptional challenges in s...
The widening gap between CPU complexity and verification capability is becoming increasingly more salient. It is impossible to completely verify the functionality of a modern mic...
This paper advances a new methodology based on signal-path information to resolve the problem of device-level placement for analog layout. This methodology is mainly based on three...
High performance architectures have always had to deal with the performance-limiting impact of branch operations. Microprocessor designs are going to have to deal with this proble...
Prior work has shown that collapsible pipelining techniques have the potential to significantly reduce clocking activity, which can consume up to 70% of the dynamic power in moder...
