Minimizing power consumption is of paramount importance during the design of embedded (mobile computing) systems that come as systems-ona-chip, since interdependencies of design c...
The ever-increasing importance of main memory latency and bandwidth is pushing CMPs towards caches with higher capacity and associativity. Associativity is typically improved by in...
As transistors continue to scale down into the nanometer regime, device leakage currents are becoming the dominant cause of power dissipation in nanometer caches, making it essent...
Recently, chip multiprocessors (CMPs) have arisen as the de facto design for modern high-performance processors, with increasing core counts. An important property of CMPs is that...
Multimedia communication systems require not only high-performance computer hardware and highspeed networks, but also a buffer management mechanism to process voluminous data effi...
