Real-time systems design involves many important choices, including that of the processor. The fastest processors achieve performance by utilizing architectural features that make...
- One of the critical issues in MTCMOS design is how to estimate a circuit delay quickly. In this paper, we propose a delay modeling and static timing analysis (STA) methodology ta...
There is a continuous research effort devoted to overcome the memory wall problem. Prefetching is one of the most frequently used techniques. A prefetch mechanism anticipates the ...
Simultaneous Multithreaded (SMT) processors improve the instruction throughput by allowing fetching and running instructions from several threads simultaneously at a single cycle....
Grid environments enable users to share non-dedicated resources that lack performance guarantees. This paper describes the design of application-centric middleware components to a...
