— As silicon CMOS devices are scaled down into the nanoscale regime, new challenges at both the device and system level are arising. While some of these challenges will be overco...
There is a growing interest in the use of speculative multithreading to speed up the execution of a program. In speculative multithreading model, threads are extracted from a sequ...
Abstract— As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay becomes the bottleneck of circuit performance. Compared to gate delays, wires are becoming increasing...
Modern processing technologies offer a number of types of devices such as high-VT , low-VT , thick-oxide, etc. in addition to the nominal transistor in order to meet system perfor...
