The architectural design of embedded systems is becoming increasingly idiosyncratic to meet varying constraints regarding energy consumption, code size, and execution time. Tradit...
Temperature hot-spots have been known to cause severe reliability problems and to significantly increase leakage power. The register file has been previously shown to exhibit the ...
— Device scaling and large integration increase the vulnerability of microprocessors to transient errors. One of the structures where errors can be most harmful is the register ...
Register files (RF) represent a substantial portion of the energy budget in modern processors, and are growing rapidly with the trend towards wider instruction issue. The actual ...
