In sub-90nm technologies, more frequent hard faults pose a serious burden on processor design and yield control. In addition to manufacturing-time chip repair schemes, microarchit...
With shrinking feature size of silicon fabrication technology, architects are putting more and more logic into a single die. While one might opt to use these transistors for build...

Similarity search in metric spaces is a general paradigm that can be used in several application fields. It can also be effectively exploited in content-based image retrieval syst...
Caches have become invaluable for higher-end architectures to hide, in part, the increasing gap between processor speed and memory access times. While the effect of caches on timi...
The growing dominance of wire delays at future technology points renders a microprocessor communication-bound. Clustered microarchitectures allow most dependence chains to execute...
