Processor Idle Cycle Aggregation (PICA) is a promising approach for low power execution of processors, in which small memory stalls are aggregated to create a large one, and the p...
This paper proposes a novel L1 data cache design with dualversioning SRAM cells (dvSRAM) for chip multi-processors (CMP) that implement optimistic concurrency proposals. In this n...
— Clock frequency and transistor density increases have resulted in elevated chip temperatures. In order to meet temperature constraints while still exploiting the performance op...
The register file is one of the most critical datapath components limiting the number of threads that can be supported on a Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) processor. To allow t...
