CRYPTONITE is a programmable processor tailored to the needs of crypto algorithms. The design of CRYPTONITE was based on an in-depth application analysis in which standard crypto ...
NBTI is one of the most important silicon reliability problems facing processor designers today. The impact of NBTI can be mitigated at both the circuit and microarchitecture leve...
The Multiscalar architecture advocates a distributed processor organization and task-level speculation to exploit high degrees of instruction level parallelism (ILP) in sequential...
We have investigated the register file requirements of dynamically scheduled processors using register renaming and dispatch queues running the SPEC92 benchmarks. We looked at pro...
Software-based self-test (SBST) is emerging as a promising technology for enabling at-speed test of high-speed microprocessors using low-cost testers. We explore the fault diagnos...
