Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
As energy-related costs have become a major economical factor for IT infrastructures and data-centers, companies and the research community are being challenged to find better an...
To construct complete systems on silicon, application specic DSP accelerators are needed to speed up the execution of high throughput DSP algorithms. In this paper, a methodology...
