We propose instruction-driven slicing, a new technique for annotating microprocessor descriptions at the Register Transfer Level (RTL) in order to achieve lower power dissipation....

Leakage power in cache memories represents a sizable fraction of total power consumption, and many techniques have been proposed to reduce it. As a matter of fact, during a fixed ...
—The Cell processor consists of a general-purpose core and eight cores with a complete SIMD instruction set. Although originally designed for multimedia and gaming, it is current...
Power efficient design of real-time systems based on programmable processors becomes more important as system functionality is increasingly realized through software. This paper ...
e technique is based on abstract execution profiles, called event signatures, and it operates at a higher level of abstraction than, for example, commonly used instruction-set sim...
