On-chip caches represent a sizable fraction of the total power consumption of microprocessors. Although large caches can significantly improve performance, they have the potential...
One architectural method for increasing processor performance involves increasing the frequency by implementing deeper pipelines. This paper will explore the relationship between ...
We present a CMOS circuit that utilizes the back-gate effect to extend the linear range of a subthreshold MOS transconductor. Previous designs of wide-linear-range transconductors...
Multiple memory module architecture offers higher performance by providing potentially doubled memory bandwidth. Two key problems in gaining high performance in this kind of archi...
We present a new visualization approach for metadata combining different visualizations into a so-called SuperTable accompanied by a Scatterplot. The goal is to improve user exper...
