The current Internet is based on a stateless (datagram) architecture. However, many recent proposals rely on the maintenance of state information within network routers, leading t...
Value prediction is a technique that breaks true data dependences by predicting the outcome of an instruction, and executes speculatively its data-dependent instructions based on ...
In the design of complex power distribution networks (PDN) with multiple power islands, it is required that the PDN represents a low impedance as seen by the digital modules. This...
—The tremendous growth in the information culture, efficient digital searches are needed to extract and identify information from huge data. The notion that evolution in silicon ...
Conditional branch induced control hazards cause significant performance loss in modern out-of-order superscalar processors. Dynamic branch prediction techniques help alleviate th...
