The negative performance impact of branch mis-predictions can be reduced by exploiting control independence (CI). When a branch mis-predicts, the wrong-path instructions up to the...
We propose signature-accelerated transactional memory (SigTM), a hybrid TM system that reduces the overhead of software transactions. SigTM uses hardware signatures to track the r...

— Existing video coding methods can cause visual quality and buffer occupancy to fluctuate significantly at scene cuts. To address this problem, we have developed a novel visual ...

We present a novel technique to exploit the power-performance tradeoff. The technique can be used stand-alone or in conjunction with dynamic voltage scaling, the mainstream techn...
