We apply Amdahl's Law to multicore chips using symmetric cores, asymmetric cores, and dynamic techniques that allows cores to work together on sequential execution. To Amdahl...
The recent development of Platform-FPGA or FieldProgrammable System-on-Chip architectures, with immersed coarse-grain processors, embedded memories and IP cores, offers the potent...

Process variations are poised to significantly degrade performance benefits sought by moving to the next nanoscale technology node. Parameter fluctuations in devices can introd...
Many-core scaling now faces a power wall. The gap between the number of cores that fit on a die and the number that can operate simultaneously under the power budget is rapidly i...
Building a high-performance microprocessor presents many reliability challenges. Designers must verify the correctness of large complex systems and construct implementations that ...
