—Latency insensitivity is a promising design paradigm in the nanometer era since it has potential benefits of increased modularity and robustness to variations. Synchronous elas...
— We present OCDIMM (Optically Connected DIMM), a CPU-DRAM interface that uses multiwavelength optical interconnects. We show that OCDIMM is more scalable and offers higher bandw...

— Video encoding to yield a decoder-friendly H.264 bit stream that consumes less decoding power yet with little coding efficiency degradation is investigated in this work. The e...
Wireless sensor networks hold the potential to open new domains to distributed data acquisition. However, such networks are prone to premature failure because some nodes deplete t...
