As the technology node advances into the nanometer era, via-open defects are one of the dominant failures due to the copper cladding process. To improve via yield and reliability, ...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
Abstract. The continuous growth of the routing tables sizes in backbone routers is one of the most compelling scaling problems affecting the Internet and has originated considerab...
Buffers in on-chip networks consume significant energy, occupy chip area, and increase design complexity. In this paper, we make a case for a new approach to designing on-chip in...
Modern search engines are expected to make documents searchable shortly after they appear on the ever changing Web. To satisfy this requirement, the Web is frequently crawled. Due...
