While some leakage power reduction techniques require modification of process technology achieving savings at the fabrication stage, others are based on circuit-level optimization...

With power density and hence cooling costs rising exponentially, processor packaging can no longer be designed for the worst case, and there is an urgent need for runtime processo...

Conventional out-of-order processors that use a unified physical register file allocate and reclaim registers explicitly using a free list that operates as a circular queue. We ...

We present and evaluate the TILA-rin GPU microarchitecture for embedded systems using the ATTILA GPU simulation framework. We use a trace from an execution of the Unreal Tournament...
Increasing focus on power dissipation issues in current microprocessors has led to a host of proposals for clock gating and other power-saving techniques. While generally effectiv...
