Most previous 3D IC research focused on “stacking” traditional 2D silicon layers, so the interconnect reduction is limited to interblock delays. In this paper, we propose tech...

— Identifying performance bottlenecks is important for microarchitects and application developers to produce high performance microprocessor designs and application software. Man...
Three dimensional vertically integrated systems allow active devices to be placed on multiple device layers. In recent years, a number of research efforts have addressed physical ...
— In this paper, we present a new interconnect delay model called Fitted Elmore delay (FED). FED is generated by approximating Hspice delay data using a curve fitting technique....

During the course of a program’s execution, a processor performs many trivial computations; that is, computations that can be simplified or where the result is zero, one, or equ...
