— A novel wave-pipelined global interconnect system is developed for reliable, high throughput, on-chip data communication. We argue that because there is only a single signal pr...
This paper describes a new on-demand wake-up prediction policy for reducing leakage power. The key insight is that branch prediction can be used to selectively wake up only the nee...
Conventional high-performance processors utilize register renaming and complex broadcast-based scheduling logic to steer instructions into a small number of heavily-pipelined exec...
While parallelism and multi-cores are receiving much attention as a major scalability path, customization is another, orthogonal and complementary, scalability path which can targ...

Graph-reduction specifications (GRSs) are a powerful new method for specifying classes of pointer data structures (shapes). They cover important shapes, like various forms of bal...
