Embedded processors like Intel’s XScale use dynamic branch prediction to improve performance. Due to the presence of context switches, the accuracy of these predictors is reduce...
This paper presents a pinpoint test set relaxation method for test compression that maximally derives the capability of a run-length encoding technique such as Golomb coding or fr...

- This paper presents a precomputation-based guarding technique to reduce both dynamic and static power consumptions in CMOS VLSI circuits. More precisely, a high threshold sleep t...
A critical problem in wide-issue superscalar processors is the limit on cycle time imposed by the central register file and operand bypass network. In this paper, a distributed re...
