With aggressive technology scaling, integrated circuits suffer from everincreasing wearout effects and their lifetime reliability has become a serious concern for the industry. Fo...
In embedded systems, performance and power are important inter-related issues that cannot be decoupled. Expensive and extensive simulations in a processor design space are usually...
A well-known challenge during processor design is to obtain best possible results for a typical target application domain by combining flexibility and computational performance. A...
This paper describes how a superscalar in-order processor must be modified to support Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) such that time-predictability is preserved for hard real-ti...
Many embedded systems are subject to temporal constraints that require advance guarantees on meeting deadlines. Such systems rely on static analysis to safely bound worst-case exe...
