Building a high-performance microprocessor presents many reliability challenges. Designers must verify the correctness of large complex systems and construct implementations that ...
This paper describes the architecture and implementation of the AlphaServer GS320, a cache-coherent non-uniform memory access multiprocessor developed at Compaq. The AlphaServer G...

Due to increasing power densities, both on-chip average and peak temperatures are fast becoming a serious bottleneck in processor design. This is due to the cost of removing the h...
To address the increasing susceptibility of commodity chip multiprocessors (CMPs) to transient faults, we propose Chiplevel Redundantly Threaded multiprocessor with Recovery (CRTR...
