In this paper we explore two alternative approaches to system diagnosis. The first strategy is based on testability analysis performed by SATAN tool. The second approach performed ...
A new architectural technique to reduce power dissipation in data caches is proposed. In multimedia applications, a major portion of data cache accesses hit in the same cache set ...
To continue to improve processor performance, microarchitects seek to increase the effective instruction level parallelism (ILP) that can be exploited in applications. A fundament...
We examine two pipeline structures which are employed in commercial microprocessors. The first is the load-use interlock (LUI) pipeline, which employs an interlock to ensure corre...
On-line transaction processing exhibits poor memory behavior in high-end multiprocessor servers because of complex sharing patterns and substantial interaction between the databas...
