The IA-64 architecture has been designed as a synthesis of VLIW and superscalar design principles. It incorporates typical functionality known from embedded processors as multiply...
Ever shrinking device sizes and innovative micro-architectural and circuit design techniques have made it possible to have multi-million transistor systems running at multi-gigahe...
With the scaling of technology and the need for higher performance and more functionality, power dissipation is becoming a major bottleneck for microprocessor designs. Pipeline ba...
