LNS (logarithmic number system) arithmetic has the advantages of high-precision and high performance in complex function computation. However, the large hardware problem in LNS ad...
Multi-Processor System-On-Chip (MPSoC) can provide the performance levels required by high-end embedded applications. However, they do so at the price of an increasing power densi...

Leakage power dissipation is one of the most critical factors for the overall current dissipation and future designs. However, design techniques for the reduction of leakage power...
An effective thermal management scheme, called active bank switching, for temperature control in the register file of a microprocessor is presented. The idea is to divide the phys...
