Multicore SOCs rely on runtime thermal measurements using on-chip sensors for DTM. In this paper we address the problem of estimating the actual temperature of on-chip thermal sen...
Manufacturing process variability impacts the performance of synchronous logic circuits by means of its effect on both clock network and functional block delays. Typically, varia...
It is known that temperature gradients and thermal hotspots affect the reliability of microprocessors. Temperature is also an important constraint when maximizing the performance...

With new technologies, temperature has become a major issue to be considered at system level design. Without taking temperature aspects into consideration, no approach to energy o...
It is unknown how to include stochastic process variation into fast-multipole-method (FMM) for a full chip capacitance extraction. This paper presents a parallel FMM extraction us...
Abstract— This paper introduces a fuzzy logic based guidance architecture to a graph grammar framework for automated design of analog circuits. The grammar generates circuit topo...
On-network hardware support for multi-destination traffic is a desirable feature in most multiprocessor machines. Multicast hardware capabilities enable much more effective bandwi...
As transistor process technology approaches the nanometer scale, process variation significantly affects the design and optimization of high performance microprocessors. Prior stu...
While parallelism and multi-cores are receiving much attention as a major scalability path, customization is another, orthogonal and complementary, scalability path which can targ...
