In recent years, highly accurate branch predictors have been proposed primarily for high performance processors. Unfortunately such predictors are extremely energy consuming and i...
We present a computer-aided design flow for quantum circuits, complete with automatic layout and control logic extraction. To motivate automated layout for quantum circuits, we in...

This paper presents a novel architectural technique to hide fetch latency overhead of hardware encrypted and authenticated memory. A number of recent secure processor designs have...
We propose an application specific processor for computational quantum chemistry. The kernel of interest is the computation of electron repulsion integrals (ERIs), which vary in c...

The organization and management of microprocessor storage structures (e.g., L1 caches, TLBs, etc.) is critical to the performance and energy consumption of the microprocessor. We ...
MppSoC is a SIMD architecture composed of a grid of processors and memories connected by a X-Net neighbourhood network and a general purpose global router. MppSoC is an evolution ...
