The semantics of power and ARM multiprocessor machine code
We develop a rigorous semantics for Power and ARM multiprocessor programs, including their relaxed memory model and the behaviour of reasonable fragments of their instruction sets...

Performance and Power Analysis of Globally Asynchronous Locally Synchronous Multi-Processor Systems
This paper investigates the performance and power dissipation of Globally Asynchronous Locally Synchronous (GALS) multi-processor systems. We show that communication loops are a s...

Variation-Aware Application Scheduling and Power Management for Chip Multiprocessors
Within-die process variation causes individual cores in a Chip Multiprocessor (CMP) to differ substantially in both static power consumed and maximum frequency supported. In this ...

Power reduction of chip multi-processors using shared resource control cooperating with DVFS
This paper presents a novel power reduction method for chip multi-processors (CMPs) under real-time constraints. While the power consumption of processing units (PUs) on CMPs can ...

A Power-Aware Prediction-Based Cache Coherence Protocol for Chip Multiprocessors
Snoopy cache coherence protocols broadcast requests to all nodes, reducing the latency of cache to cache transfer misses at the expense of increasing interconnect power. We propos...
