—On-chip decoupling capacitors (decaps) are generally used to reduce power supply noise. Passive decap designs are reaching their limits in 90nm CMOS technology due to higher ope...
Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) is considered to be a promising future memory technology due to its low leakage power, high density and fast read speed. The heterogeneous int...
Hard-disk drive power consumption reduction methods focus mainly on increasing the amount of time the disk is in standby mode (disk spun down) by implementing aggressive data read...
Power dissipation is unevenly distributed in modern microprocessors leading to localized hot spots with significantly greater die temperature than surrounding cooler regions. Exc...
Abstract. Current trends in CMPs indicate that the core count will increase in the near future. One of the main performance limiters of these forthcoming microarchitectures is the ...
