Over the past decade, digital signal processors (DSPs) have emerged as the processors of choice for implementing embedded applications in high-volume consumer products. Through th...
ABSTRACT: Switch chips are building blocks for computer and communication systems. Switches need internal buffering, because of output contention; shared buffering is known to perf...
Modern DRAM systems rely on memory controllers that employ out-of-order scheduling to maximize row access locality and bank-level parallelism, which in turn maximizes DRAM bandwid...
Human-computer systems intended for time-critical multitasking need to be designed with an understanding of how humans can coordinate and interleave perceptual, memory, and motor ...
Highly aggressive multi-issue processor designs of the past few years and projections for the next decade require that we redesign the operation of the cache memory system. The nu...
