Denial of service (DoS) attacks are major threat against availability in the Internet. A large number of countermeasure techniques try to detect attack and then filter out DoS at...
Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
for ideas, and then abstract away from these ideas to produce algorithmic processes that can create problem solutions in a bottom-up manner. We have previously described a top-dow...
System-level and Platform-based design, along with Transaction Level modeling (TLM) techniques and languages like SystemC, appeared as a response to the ever increasing complexity...
