Caching techniques have been an efficient mechanism for mitigating the effects of the processor-memory speed gap. Traditional multi-level SRAM-based cache hierarchies, especially...
Abstract—Recent breakthroughs in circuit and process technology have enabled new usage models for non-volatile memory technologies such as Flash and phase change RAM (PCRAM) in t...
Abstract—In this paper a programmable Forward Error Correction (FEC) IP for a DVB-S2 receiver is presented. It is composed of a Low-Density Parity Check (LDPC), a Bose-ChaudhuriH...
Significant progress has been made in terrestrial sensor networks to revolutionize sensing and data collection. To bring the concept of long-lived, dense sensor networks to the u...
— While essential for high-performance circuit design, the custom nature of datapath components confines their use in only a few microprocessor companies. The reusability of dat...
