We compare the performance of systems consisting of one large cluster containing q processors with systems where processors are grouped into k clusters containing u processors eac...
Switching activity-generated power-supply grid-noise presents a major obstacle to the reduction of supply voltage in future generation semiconductor technologies. A popular techniq...
It is generally believed that there will be little more variety in CPU architectures, and thus the design of Instruction-set Architectures (ISAs) will have no role in the future o...
Replacing functional units of an extensible processor with reconfigurable functional units enhances performance and flexibility of processors to execute custom instructions. That ...
In current embedded systems processors, multi-ported register files are one of the most power hungry parts of the processor, even when they are clustered. This paper presents a n...
