Previous studies have shown that buffering packets in DRAM is a performance bottleneck. In order to understand the impediments in accessing the DRAM, we developed a detailed Petri...
Reliability in embedded processors can be improved by control flow checking and such checking can be conducted using software or hardware. Proposed software-only approaches suffe...
Traditionally, active power has been the primary source of power dissipation in CMOS designs. Although, leakage power is becoming increasingly more important as technology feature...
As energy consumption in high-performance systems has increased, thermal management has become a big challenge. Providing a cost-effective and detailed temperature sensing mechani...
Microprocessor technology is increasingly used for many applications; the large market volumes call for cost containment in the production phase. Process yield for processor produ...
