Abstract. While the fetch unit has been identified as one of the major bottlenecks of Simultaneous Multithreading architecture, several fetch schemes were proposed by prior works t...
Concentration of design effort for current single-chip Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) microprocessors has been directed towards performance. Reliability has not been the primary ...
The advance in semiconductor technologies presents the serious problem of parameter variations. They affect threshold voltage of transistors and thus circuit delay also has variat...
