Scratchpad memory (SPM), a fast software-managed onchip SRAM, is now widely used in modern embedded processors. Compared to hardware-managed cache, it is more efficient in perfor...
In this paper we present a new approach for generating high-speed optimized event-driven register transfer level (RTL) compiled simulators. The generation of the simulators is part...
Signature matching, which includes packet classification and content matching, is the most expensive operation of a signature-based network intrusion detection system (NIDS). In t...
—The industry is now in agreement that the future of architecture design lies in multiple cores. As a consequence, all computer systems today, from embedded devices to petascale ...
Fetching instructions from a set-associative cache in an embedded processor can consume a large amount of energy due to the tag checks performed. Recent proposals to address this ...
