A new high performance computation technique involving multiple processors on a single silicon die is quickly gaining popularity. This new design approach provides very high perfo...
In modern computers, the floating point unit is the part of the processor delivering the highest computing power and getting most attention from the design team. Performance of an...
Code Compression has been shown to be efficient in minimizing the memory requirements for embedded systems as well as in power consumption reduction and performance improvement. I...
Since processor performance scalability will now mostly be achieved through thread-level parallelism, there is a strong incentive to parallelize a broad range of applications, inc...
Performance analysis of microprocessors is a critical step in defining the microarchitecture, prior to register-transfer-level (RTL) design. In complex chip multiprocessor systems...
