The performance of a computer system is highly dependent on the performance of the cache memory system. The traditional cache memory system has an organization with a line size tha...

Many architectural ideas that appear to be useful from a hardware standpoint fail to achieve wide acceptance due to lack of compiler support. In this paper we explore the design of...

This paper presents a novel technique to evaluate the noncontrollability measures of state registers for partial scan design. Our model uses implicit techniques for finite state ma...
We describe a novel iterationless approach for computing the effective capacitance of an interconnect load at a driving gate output. Our new approach is considerably faster than p...
Future parallel computers must efficiently execute not only hand-coded applications but also programs written in high-level, parallel programming languages. Today's machines ...

Data compression and prediction are closely related. Thus prediction methods based on data compression algorithms have been suggested for the branch prediction problem. In this wo...
