The cache hierarchy design in existing SMT and superscalar processors is optimized for latency, but not for bandwidth. The size of the L1 data cache did not scale over the past dec...
As chip complexity grows, design productivity boost is expected from reuse of large parts and blocks of previous designs with the design effort largely invested into the new parts...
Technology scaling allows the integration of billions of transistors on the same die but CAD tools struggle in keeping up with the increasing design complexity. Design productivit...
Abstract - In this paper, we propose the concept of System-InPackage (SIP) as a generalization of System-On-Chip (SOC). System-In-Package overcomes formidable integration barriers ...
—Regular multi-core processors are appearing in the embedded system market as high performance software programmable solutions. The use of regular interconnect fabrics for them a...
