Since the advent of electronic computing, the processors’ clock speed has risen tremendously. Now that energy efficiency requirements have stopped that trend, the number of proc...
Commodity hardware and software are growing increasingly more complex, with advances such as chip heterogeneity and specialization, deeper memory hierarchies, ne-grained power ma...
The continued scaling of device dimensions and the operating voltage reduces the critical charge and thus natural noise tolerance level of transistors. As a result, circuits can p...
Current integration trends embrace the prosperity of single-chip multi-core processors. Although multi-core processors deliver significantly improved system throughput, single-thr...
Massively multicore processors, like, for example, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), provide, at a comparable price, a one order of magnitude higher peak performance than traditio...
