Increasing demand for larger high-performance applications requires developing more complex systems with hundreds of processing cores on a single chip. To allow dynamic voltage sc...
We present a novel temperature/leakage sensor, developed for high-speed, low-power, monitoring of processors and complex VLSI chips. The innovative idea is the use of 4T SRAM cell...
The quadratic relationship between voltage and energy has made dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) one of the most powerful techniques to reduce system power demands. Recently, techniqu...

While set-associative caches incur fewer misses than directmapped caches, they typically have slower hit times and higher power consumption, when multiple tag and data banks are p...
VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
