This paper explores the power implications of replacing global chip wires with an on-chip network. We optimize network links by varying repeater spacing, link pipelining, and volt...
A significant part of future microprocessor real estate will be dedicated to L2 or L3 caches. These on-chip caches will heavily impact processor performance, power dissipation, a...
Driven by increasing complexity and reliability demands, the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) in 2004 commissioned development of ELEGANT, a complete SpecC-based envir...

As transistors continue to scale down into the nanometer regime, device leakage currents are becoming the dominant cause of power dissipation in nanometer caches, making it essent...
System-on-chip communication architectures have a significant impact on the performance and power consumption of modern multiprocessor system-on-chips (MPSoCs). However, customiza...
