Modern microprocessor designs continue to obtain impressive performance gains through increasing clock rates and advances in the parallelism obtained via micro-architecture design...
Today, mobile smartphones are expected to be able to run the same complex, memory-intensive applications that were originally designed and coded for general-purpose processors. Ho...
Abstract: If the computational demands of an interactive graphics rendering application cannot be met by a single commodity Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), multiple graphics accele...

Focusing on embedded applications, scratchpad memories (SPMs) look like a best-compromise solution when taking into account performance, energy consumption and die area. The main ...
The speed gap between processor and memory continues to limit performance. To address this problem, we explore the potential of eliminating Zero Loads—loads accessing memory loc...
