This paper introduces a cost-effective technique to deal with CMP coherence protocol requirements from the interconnection network point of view. A mechanism is presented to avoid...
Snoopy cache coherence protocols broadcast requests to all nodes, reducing the latency of cache to cache transfer misses at the expense of increasing interconnect power. We propos...
The design and performance of next-generation chip multiprocessors (CMPs) will be bound by the limited amount of power that can be dissipated on a single die. We present photonic n...
On-chip implementation of multiprocessor systems requires the planarization of the interconnect network onto the silicon floorplan. Manual floorplanning approaches will become i...
Due to the restriction of SIMD mode to local operations in VLSI massively parallel vision chips, using programmable connections and asynchronous communications are key ingredients ...
