The emerging trend of larger number of cores or processors on a single chip in the server, desktop, and mobile notebook platforms necessarily demands larger amount of on-chip last...
This paper describes a novel memory hierarchy and line-pixel-lookahead (LPL) for an H.264/AVC video decoder. The memory system is the bottleneck of most video processors, particula...
Heterogeneous multi-core processors, such as the IBM Cell processor, can deliver high performance. However, these processors are notoriously difficult to program: different cores...
As VLSI technology scales toward 65nm and beyond, both timing and power performance of integrated circuits are increasingly affected by process variations. In practice, people oft...
In the past, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) circuits only contained a limited amount of logic and operated at a low frequency. Few applications running on FPGAs consumed exc...
