A significant part of future microprocessor real estate will be dedicated to L2 or L3 caches. These on-chip caches will heavily impact processor performance, power dissipation, a...
Exponential increases in architectural design complexity threaten to make traditional processor design optimization techniques intractable. Genetically programmed response surface...
We present a framework for rapidly exploring the design space of low power application-specific programmable processors (ASPP), in particular mediaprocessors. We focus on a catego...
