The ever increasing die area of Chip Multiprocessors (CMPs) affects manufacturing yield, resulting in higher manufacture cost. Meanwhile, network-on-chip (NoC) has emerged as a p...
The demands for high quality, real-time performance and multi-format video support in consumer multimedia products are ever increasing. In particular, the future multimedia systems...
Performance analysis of microprocessors is a critical step in defining the microarchitecture, prior to register-transfer-level (RTL) design. In complex chip multiprocessor systems...
