Optimizing communication and capacity in a 3D stacked reconfigurable cache hierarchy
Cache hierarchies in future many-core processors are expected to grow in size and contribute a large fraction of overall processor power and performance. In this paper, we postula...

Eliminating microarchitectural dependency from Architectural Vulnerability
The Architectural Vulnerability Factor (AVF) of a hardware structure is the probability that a fault in the structure will affect the output of a program. AVF captures both microa...

Adaptive Spill-Receive for robust high-performance caching in CMPs
In a Chip Multi-Processor (CMP) with private caches, the last level cache is statically partitioned between all the cores. This prevents such CMPs from sharing cache capacity in r...

Prediction router: Yet another low latency on-chip router architecture
Network-on-Chips (NoCs) are quite latency sensitive, since their communication latency strongly affects the application performance on recent many-core architectures. To reduce th...
