Ever increasing performance requirements have elevated deeply pipelined architectures to a standard even in the embedded processor domain, requiring the incorporation of dynamic b...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is a well-known low power design technique that reduces the processor energy by slowing down the DVS processor and stretching the task execution time...
We propose an approach for reducing the energy consumption of address buses that targets both the switching and the crosstalk components of power dissipation. The method is based ...
Profiling an application executing on a microprocessor is part of the solution to numerous software and hardware optimization and design automation problems. Most current profilin...
Low power has been considered as an important issue in instruction cache (I-cache) designs. Several studies have shown that the I-cache can be tuned to reduce power. These techniq...
