Abstract-- With the continuous downscaling of CMOS technologies, the reliability has become a major bottleneck in the evolution of the next generation systems. Technology trends su...
Today's customizable processors allow the designer to augment the base processor with custom accelerators. By choosing appropriate set of accelerators, designer can significa...
As the level of chip integration continues to advance at a fast pace, the desire for efficient interconnects-whether on-chip or off-chip--is rapidly increasing. Traditional interc...
Due to cost, time, and flexibility constraints, simulators are often used to explore the design space when developing a new processor architecture, as well as when evaluating the ...
We propose a low overhead, on-line memory monitoring scheme utilizing a set of novel hardware counters. The counters act like pressure gauges indicating the marginal gain in the n...
