In this paper, we propose PDRAM, a novel energy efficient main memory architecture based on phase change random access memory (PRAM) and DRAM. The paper explores the challenges in...
Power and performance benefits of scaling are lost to worst case margins as uncertainty of device characteristics is increasing. Adaptive techniques can dynamically adjust the mar...
This paper introduces Way Stealing, a simple architectural modification to a cache-based processor to increase data bandwidth to and from application-specific Instruction Set Exte...

In this paper, a design method for automotive architectures is proposed. The two main technical contributions are (i) a novel hardware/software architecture encoding that unifies ...
In double patterning lithography (DPL), coloring conflict and stitch minimization are the two main challenges. Post layout decomposition algorithm [1] [2]may not be enough to achi...
Silicon nanowires are a promising solution to address the increasing challenges of fabrication and design at the future nodes of the Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS)...
