This paper proposes a low power technique, called SBR (Sign Bit Reduction) which may reduce the switching activity in multipliers as well as data buses. Utilizing the multipliers ...
Power consumption is an important issue for cluster supercomputers as it directly affects running cost and cooling requirements. This paper investigates the memory energy efficienc...
As the thermal wall becomes the dominant factor limiting VLSI circuit performance, and the interconnect wires become the primary power consumer, power efficiency of onchip data th...

Various system-level core-based power evaluation approaches for core types like microprocessors, caches, main memories, and buses, have been proposed in the past. Approaches for o...
In deep sub-micron technology, the crosstalk effect between adjacent wires has become an important issue, especially between long on-chip buses. This effect leads to the increas...
