Continued scaling of CMOS technology to smaller transistor sizes makes modern processors more susceptible to both transient and permanent hardware faults. Circuitlevel techniques ...
An Application Specific Instruction Set Processor (ASIP) exploits special characteristics of the given application(s) to meet the desired performance, cost and power requirements....
Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
Narrow values that can be represented by less number of bits than the full machine width occur very frequently in programs. On the other hand, clustering mechanisms enable cost- a...
