—While computing speed continues increasing rapidly, data-access technology is lagging behind. Data-access delay, not the processor speed, becomes the leading performance bottlen...
We present new architectural concepts for uniprocessor designs that conform to the data-driven computation paradigm. Usage of our D2 -CPU (Data-Driven processor) follows the natura...
In deep sub-micron technology, the crosstalk effect between adjacent wires has become an important issue, especially between long on-chip buses. This effect leads to the increas...
Energy-efficient microprocessor designs are one of the major concerns in both high performance and embedded processor domains. Furthermore, as process technology advances toward d...
We explore different prefetch distance-degree combinations and very simple, low-cost adaptive policies on a superscalar core with a high bandwidth, high capacity on-chip memory hie...
