Federation: repurposing scalar cores for out-of-order instruction issue
Future SoCs will contain multiple cores. For workloads with significant parallelism, prior work has shown the benefit of many small, multi-threaded, scalar cores. For workloads th...

Enhancing timing-driven FPGA placement for pipelined netlists
FPGA application developers often attempt to use pipelining, Cslowing and retiming to improve the performance of their designs. Unfortunately, such registered netlists present a f...

Characterizing chip-multiprocessor variability-tolerance
Spatially-correlated intra-die process variations result in significant core-to-core frequency variations in chip-multiprocessors. An analytical model for frequency island chip-mu...

Analog parallelism in ring-based VCOs
The performance advantages in parallel ring-based VCOs are explored. When the number of VCOs is doubled, the parallel VCOs enhance phase noise by 3dB, and the within-chip process-...
