Abstract— Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a promising technique for battery-powered systems to conserve energy consumption. Most existing DVS algorithms assume information about...
Recently, a new Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) scheme has been proposed that increases energy efficiency significantly by allowing the processor to operate at or slightly below the...

The integration of retiming and simultaneous supply/threshold voltage scaling has a potential to enable more rigorous total power reduction. However, such integration is a highly ...
Voltage scaling reduces leakage power for cache lines unlikely to be referenced soon. Partitioning reduces dynamic power via smaller, specialized structures. We combine approaches,...

—The wide use of voltage scaling along with pipelining makes flip-flops particularly important at ultra-low voltages. In this paper, the impact of voltage scaling on the performa...
: 2-D Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) is widely used as the core of digital image and video compression. In this paper, we present a novel DCT architecture that allows aggressive v...
— Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) is a leading reliability concern for integrated circuits (ICs). It gradually increases the threshold voltages of PMOS transistors, ...
Voltage scaling is one of the most effective mechanisms to reduce microprocessor power consumption. However, the increased severity of manufacturing-induced parameter variations a...
