A well-known challenge during processor design is to obtain best possible results for a typical target application domain by combining flexibility and computational performance. A...
In this paper, we present several novel strategies to improve software controlled cache utilization, so as to achieve lower power requirements for multi-media and signal processin...
This paper presents the study of running several core multimedia applications on a simultaneous multithreading (SMT) architecture and derives design principles for multimedia soft...
