Operand bypass logic might be one of the critical structures for future microprocessors to achieve high clock speed. The delay of the logic imposes the execution time budget to be ...
Abstract. We describe fully polynomial time approximation schemes for generalized multicommodity flow problems arising in VLSI applications such as Global Routing via Buffer Block...

Custom computing systems exhibit significant speedups over traditional microprocessors by mapping compute-intensive sections of a program to reconfigurable logic [Hauck98]. Howeve...

Silent store instructions write values that exactly match the values that are already stored at the memory address that is being written. A recent study reveals that significant ...
Increasing focus on multimedia applications has prompted the addition of multimedia extensions to most existing general purpose microprocessors. This added functionality comes pri...
