Low power has been considered as an important issue in instruction cache (I-cache) designs. Several studies have shown that the I-cache can be tuned to reduce power. These techniq...
The designs of high-performance processor architectures are moving toward the integration of a large number of multiple processing cores on a single chip. The IBM Cyclops-64 (C64)...
—This paper introduces a technique to measure and adjust the relative phase of on-chip high speed digital signals using a random sampling technique of inferential statistics. The...
— We discuss the design of CMOS MEMS in a 3D SOI-CMOS technology. We present layout architectures, preliminary mechanics modeling using finite element analysis and release proce...
— Due to its great flexibility, gridless routing is desirable for nanometer circuit designs that use variable wire widths and spacings. Nevertheless, it is much more difficult ...
