- Current industry trends in system design -- multiple clocks, clocks with arbitrary frequency ratios, multi-phased clocks, gated clocks, and level-sensitive latches, combined with...
We describe the design, analysis, and performance of an on–line algorithm to dynamically control the frequency/voltage of a Multiple Clock Domain (MCD) microarchitecture. The MC...

This paper describes the AccuPower toolset -- a set of simulation tools accurately estimating the power dissipation within a superscalar microprocessor. AccuPower uses a true hard...
Increasing the number of instruction queue (IQ) entries in a dynamically scheduled processor exposes more instruction-level parallelism, leading to higher performance. However, in...
