— As growing power dissipation and thermal effects disrupted the rising clock frequency trend and threatened to annul Moore’s law, the computing industry has switched its route...
Abstract—A Network-on-Chip (NoC) replaces on-chip communication implemented by point-to-point interconnects in a multi-core environment by a set of shared interconnects connected...
Abstract—We present a transactional datapath specification (Tspec) and the tool (T-piper) to synthesize automatically an inpelined implementation from it. T-spec abstractly views...
