In this paper, we propose a new transparent built-in self-test ( TBIST ) method to test multiple embedded memory arrays with various sizes in parallel. First, a new transparent tes...
Power consumption within the disk-based storage subsystem forms a substantial portion of the overall energy footprint in commodity systems. Researchers have proposed external cach...

Recent research suggests that there are large variations in a cache's spatial usage, both within and across programs. Unfortunately, conventional caches typically employ fixe...

Modern out-of-order processors tolerate long latency memory operations by supporting a large number of inflight instructions. This is particularly useful in numerical applications...
Although caches for decades have been the backbone of the memory system, the speed gap between CPU and main memory suggests their augmentation with prefetching mechanisms. Recentl...
