A physically compact, low cost, high performance 3D graphics accelerator is presented. It supports shaded rendering of triangles and antialiased lines into a double-buffered 24-bi...
A self–routing permutation network is a connector which can set its own switches to realize any one-to-one mapping of its inputs onto its outputs. Many permutation networks have...
Control intensive scalar programs pose a very different challenge to highly pipelined supercomputers than vectorizable numeric applications. Function call/return and branch instru...
In this work we reduce interconnect power dissipation in Symmetric Multiprocessors or SMPs. We revisit snoopy cache coherence protocols and reduce unnecessary interconnect activit...
