Fine-grained dynamic voltage/frequency scaling (DVFS) is an important tool in managing the balance between power and performance in chip-multiprocessors. Although manufacturing pr...
The benefits of Out of Order (OOO) processing are well known, as is the effectiveness of predicated execution for unpredictable control flow. However, as previous research has dem...
Inductive noise forces microprocessor designers to sacrifice performance in order to ensure correct and reliable operation of their designs. The possibility of wide fluctuations i...
