ct Digital's NVAX high-performance microprocessor has a complex logical design. A rigorous simulation-based verification effort was undertaken to ensure that there were no log...
We have fabricated a Chip Multiprocessor prototype code-named Merlot to proof our novel speculative multithreading architecture. On Merlot, multiple threads provide wider issue wi...
— The concept of applying partial fencing to logic built-in self test (LBIST) hardware structures for the purpose of using partially good chips is well known in the chip design i...
Pervasive Logic is a broad term applied to the variety of logic present in hardware designs, yet not a part of their primary functionality. Examples of pervasive logic include init...
New application-focused system-on-chip platforms motivate new application-specific processors. Configurable and extensible processor architectures offer the efficiency of tuned lo...
