Recent research shows that the high occupancy of Coherence Controllers (CCs) is a major performance bottleneck in scalable shared-memory multiprocessors. In this paper, we propose...
As technology evolves into the deep sub-micron era, signal integrity problems are growing into a major challenge. An important source of signal integrity problems is the crosstalk...
The use of AC coupled interconnects to provide communication paths between devices is increasing. The existing IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan standard [1] (JTAG) has limitations that h...
Abstract—High-speed routers often use commodity, fully-associative, TCAMs (Ternary Content Addressable Memories) to perform packet classification and routing (IP lookup). We prop...
Silicon technology will continue to provide an exponential increase in the availability of raw transistors. Effectively translating this resource into application performance, how...
