In this paper, we present two methods to reduce leakage energy by dynamically resizing the cache during program execution. The first method monitors the miss rate of the individua...
Hybrid architectures, which are composed of a conventional processor closely coupled with reconfigurable logic, seem to combine the advantages of both types of hardware. They pres...
Previous studies have shown that object-oriented programs have different execution characteristics than procedural programs, and that special object-oriented hardware can improve p...
Abstract. Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) gives software developers the opportunity to write parallel programs more easily compared to any previous programming method, and yiel...
In this paper, we suggest hardware-assisted data compression as a tool for reducing energy consumption of core-based embedded systems. We propose a novel and e cient architecture ...
