With increasing chip densities, future microprocessor designs have the opportunity to integrate many of the traditional systemlevel modules onto the same chip as the processor. So...
As processor speeds rapidly approach the Giga-Hertz regime, the disparity between process time and memory access time plays an increasing role in the overall limitation of processo...
Abstract. Several computing environments including wide area networks and nondedicated networks of workstations are characterized by frequent unavailability of the participating ma...
