Signal-Specialized Parameterization for Piecewise Linear Reconstruction
We propose a metric for surface parameterization specialized to its signal that can be used to create more efficient, high-quality texture maps. Derived from Taylor expansion of s...

Energy-Efficient Design for Highly Associative Instruction Caches in Next-Generation Embedded Processors
This paper proposes a low-energy solution for CAMbased highly associative I-caches using a segmented wordline and a predictor-based instruction fetch mechanism. Not all instructio...

Improving Branch Prediction and Predicated Execution in Out-of-Order Processors
If-conversion is a compiler technique that reduces the misprediction penalties caused by hard-to-predict branches, transforming control dependencies into data dependencies. Althou...

A distributed processor state management architecture for large-window processors
— Processor architectures with large instruction windows have been proposed to expose more instruction-level parallelism (ILP) and increase performance. Some of the proposed arch...
