As packet-switching interconnection networks replace buses and dedicated wires to become the standard on-chip interconnection fabric, reducing their power consumption has been ide...
There is currently a huge gap between the two main technologies used to implement custom digital integrated circuit (IC) designs. At one end of the spectrum are field programmable...
Future high-performance billion-transistor processors are likely to employ partitioned architectures to achieve high clock speeds, high parallelism, low design complexity, and low...
In this paper we propose a design technique to pipeline cache memories for high bandwidth applications. With the scaling of technology cache access latencies are multiple clock cy...
Energy-efficient microprocessor designs are one of the major concerns in both high performance and embedded processor domains. Furthermore, as process technology advances toward d...
