Recent advances in statistical inference and machine learning close the divide between simulation and classical optimization, thereby enabling more rigorous and robust microarchit...
Power control is becoming a key challenge for effectively operating a modern data center. In addition to reducing operating costs, precisely controlling power consumption is an es...
Designing thermal management policies for today's power-dense server clusters is currently a challenge, since it is difficult to predict the exact temperature and performance...
The interconnect mechanisms (shared bus or crossbar) used in current chip-multiprocessors (CMPs) are expected to become a bottleneck that prevents these architectures from scaling...
