Conventional high-performance processors utilize register renaming and complex broadcast-based scheduling logic to steer instructions into a small number of heavily-pipelined exec...
In an out-of-order issue processor, instructions are dynamically reordered and issued to function units in their dataready order rather than their original program order to achiev...
— Leakage power dissipation becomes a dominant component in operation power in nanometer devices. This paper describes a design methodology to implement runtime power gating in a...
Abstract-- Digital signal processing (DSP) is used to perform filtering, decimation and down conversion in common communications systems, like in oversampling analog to digital con...
In high-end processors, increasing the number of in-flight instructions can improve performance by overlapping useful processing with long-latency accesses to the main memory. Buf...
