Powerful branch predictors along with a large branch target buffer (BTB) are employed in superscalar processors for instruction-level parallelism exploitation. However, the large ...
Abstract--In this paper we analyze the energy-efficiency of distributed compression and its dependence on the node deployment strategies for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Reduce...
—Current general-purpose memory allocators do not provide sufficient speed or flexibility for modern highperformance applications. To optimize metrics like performance, memory us...
