Exponentially rising cooling/packaging costs due to high power density call for architectural and software-level thermal management. Dynamic thermal management (DTM) techniques co...
Within-die variation in leakage power consumption is substantial and increasing for chip-level multiprocessors (CMPs) and multiprocessor systems-on-chip. Dealing with this problem...
