The continued scaling of device dimensions and the operating voltage reduces the critical charge and thus natural noise tolerance level of transistors. As a result, circuits can p...
Chip multi-processors (CMPs) have become ubiquitous, while tools that ease concurrent programming have not. The promise of increased performance for all applications through ever ...
