Energy efficiency is rapidly becoming a first class optimization parameter for modern systems. Caches are critical to the overall performance and thus, modern processors (both hig...
Technology scaling has resulted in an exponential increase in the leakage power as well as the variations in leakage power of fabricated chips. Functional units (FUs), like Intege...
Mixed Vt has been widely used to control leakage without affecting circuit performance. However, current approaches target the combinational circuits even though sequential elemen...
— This paper describes an architecture and FPGA synthesis toolchain for building specialized, energy-saving coprocessors called Irregular Code Energy Reducers (ICERs) for a wide ...
