In this paper we introduce a new low power address bus encoding technique, and the resulting code, named ALBORZ. The ALBORZ code is constructed based on transition signaling the l...
This paper proposes a methodology to evaluate the effects of encodings on the power consumption of system-level buses in the presence of multi-level cache memories. The proposed m...
