— Routing protocols have traditionally been based on finding shortest paths under certain cost metrics. A conventional routing metric models the cost of a path as the sum of the...
High-end computing is universally recognized to be a strategic tool for leadership in science and technology. A significant portion of high-end computing is conducted on clusters...
— Modern CPUs operate at GHz frequencies, but the latencies of memory accesses are still relatively large, in the order of hundreds of cycles. Deeper cache hierarchies with large...

We have studied DRAM-level prefetching for the fully buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) designed for multi-core processors. FB-DIMM has a unique two-level interconnect structure, with FB-DIM...
Multiprocessor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs) is a trend in VLSI design, since they minimize the “design crisis” (gap between silicon technology and actual SoC design capacity) and ...
