Horizontally partitioned data caches are a popular architectural feature in which the processor maintains two or more data caches at the same level of hierarchy. Horizontally part...
While hard disk drives are the most common secondary storage devices, their high power consumption and low shockresistance limit them as an ideal mobile storage solution. On the o...
We consider self-testing of complete wireless nodes in the field through a low-energy software-based selftest (SBST) method. Energy consumption is optimized both for individual co...
Interprocessor synchronization, while extremely important for ensuring execution correctness, can be very costly in terms of both power and performance overheads. Unfortunately, m...
— Batteries are non-ideal energy sources – minimizing the energy consumption of a battery-powered system is not equivalent to maximizing its battery life. We propose an alterna...
