With advances in process technology, soft errors (SE) are becoming an increasingly critical design concern. Due to their large area and high density, caches are worst hit by soft ...
Dynamic voltage scaling and sleep state control have been shown to be extremely effective in reducing energy consumption in CMOS circuits. Though plenty of research papers have st...

The architectural design of embedded systems is becoming increasingly idiosyncratic to meet varying constraints regarding energy consumption, code size, and execution time. Tradit...
Packet processing systems maintain high throughput despite relatively high memory latencies by exploiting the coarse-grained parallelism available between packets. In particular, ...
