With the prevalence of server blades and systems-ona-chip (SoCs), interconnection networks are becoming an important part of the microprocessor landscape. However, there is limite...
This paper explores low-power reliable microarchitectures for addition. Power, speed, and reliability (both defect- and fault-tolerance) are important metrics of system design, sp...

Abstract. An extensible and configurable processor is a programmable platform offering the possibility to customize the instruction set and/or underlying microarchitecture. Efficie...
Multi-core processors naturally exploit thread-level parallelism (TLP). However, extracting instruction-level parallelism (ILP) from individual applications or threads is still a ...
The time required to simulate a complete benchmark program using the cycle-accurate model of a microprocessor can be prohibitively high. One of the proposed methodologies, represe...
