There is a growing interest in the use of speculative multithreading to speed up the execution of a program. In speculative multithreading model, threads are extracted from a sequ...
A large and increasing number of modern embedded systems are subject to tight power/energy constraints. It has been demonstrated that the operating system (OS) can have a signifi...
Modern processing technologies offer a number of types of devices such as high-VT , low-VT , thick-oxide, etc. in addition to the nominal transistor in order to meet system perfor...
