On-chip caches represent a sizeable fraction of the total power consumption of microprocessors. Although large caches can significantly improve performance, they have the potentia...
Leakage power is one of the most critical issues for ultra-deep submicron technology. Subthreshold leakage depends exponentially on linewidth, and consequently variation in linewi...
While some leakage power reduction techniques require modification of process technology achieving savings at the fabrication stage, others are based on circuit-level optimization...
