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...
—Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology is characterized by continuous improvements that provide new opportunities in system design. Multiprocessors-ona-Programmable-Chi...
Future embedded systems will integrate hundreds of processors. Current design space exploration methods cannot cope with such a complexity. It is mandatory to extend these methods...
