Parameter variations are a major factor causing powerperformance asymmetry in chip multiprocessors. In this paper, we analyze the effects of with-in-die (WID) process variations o...
As the VLSI technology marches beyond 65 and 45nm process technologies, variation in gate length has a direct impact on leakage and performance of CMOS transistors. Due to sub-wav...
Decimal floating-point multiplication is important in many commercial applications including banking, tax calculation, currency conversion, and other financial areas. This paper...
