We describe an architectural design space exploration methodology that minimizes the energy dissipation of digital circuits. The centerpiece of our methodology is a Verilog-based ...
Modern processors have a small on-chip local memory for instructions. Usually it is in the form of a cache but in some cases it is an addressable memory. In the latter, the user is...
This research explores any potential for an on-chip cache compression which can reduce not only cache miss ratio but also miss penalty, if main memory is also managed in compresse...
Multiprocessor system-on-chip (MPSoC) is an integrated circuit containing multiple instruction-set processors on a single chip that implements most of the functionality of a compl...
Multiple memory module architecture enjoys higher memory access bandwidth and thus higher performance. Two key problems in gaining high performance in this kind of architecture ar...
