Distributed Shortest-Positioning Time First (D-SPTF) is a request distribution protocol for decentralized systems of storage servers. D-SPTF exploits high-speed interconnects to d...
Multiprocessor Systems-on-Chip (MPSoCs) is a trend in VLSI design, since they minimize the “design crisis” (gap between silicon technology and actual SoC design capacity) and ...
As transistor process technology approaches the nanometer scale, process variation significantly affects the design and optimization of high performance microprocessors. Prior stu...
As we move to large manycores, the hardware-based global checkpointing schemes that have been proposed for small shared-memory machines do not scale. Scalability barriers include ...
The load/store queue (LSQ) is one of the most complex parts of contemporary processors. Its latency is critical for the processor performance and it is usually one of the processo...
