Multi-core processors have become an integral part of mainstream high performance computer systems. In parallel, exponentially increasing power density and packaging costs have ne...
With the popularity of multi-core architecture, to sustain the memory demands from different cores, the memory system is expected to grow significantly in both speed and capacit...
Air cooling limits have been a major design challenge in recent years for integrated circuits. Multi-core exacerbates thermal challenges because power scales with the number of co...
