A Built-In Self-Test (BIST) approach is presented for the Internal Configuration Access Port (ICAP) and Frame Error Correcting Code (ECC) logic cores embedded in Xilinx Virtex-4 an...
- Multi-core chips present a new computing environment that can benefit from software support for non-numerical applications. Heterogeneous cores will allow efficient sophisticated...
To support dynamic address translation in today's microprocessors, the first-level cache is accessed in parallel with a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). However, this curre...
We present a methodology for a power-optimized, software-controlled Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) organization. A highly reduced number of Virtual Page Number (VPN) bits sufï...
Today, it is possible to associate multiple CPUs and multiple GPUs in a single shared memory architecture. Using these resources efficiently in a seamless way is a challenging issu...
