With the shift towards chip multiprocessors (CMPs), exploiting and managing parallelism has become a central problem in computer systems. Many issues of parallelism management boi...
Abstract-- In battery driven portable applications, the minimization of energy, average power, peak power, and peak power differential are equally important to improve reliability ...
The rise of multi-core processors has shifted performance efforts towards parallel programs. However, single-threaded code, whether from legacy programs or ones difficult to para...
This paper re-examines the well established clocking principles of pipelines. It is observed that clock gating techniques that have long been assumed optimal in reality produce a ...
With the shrinking of transistors continuing to follow Moore's Law and the non-scalability of conventional outof-order processors, multi-core systems are becoming the design ...
