As DRAM access latencies approach a thousand instructionexecution times and on-chip caches grow to multiple megabytes, it is not clear that conventional cache structures continue ...
Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) are now commodity hardware, but commoditization of parallel software remains elusive. In the near term, the current trend of increased coreper-socket c...
Available techniques for testing core-based systems-on-a-chip (SOCs) do not provide a systematic means for synthesising low-overhead test architectures and compact test solutions....
