—Hardware Intellectual Property (IP) cores have emerged as an integral part of modern System–on–Chip (SoC) designs. However, IP vendors are facing major challenges to protect...
— Designers require variational information for robust designs. Characterization of such information can be costly for the novel nanoparticle interconnect process, which utilize ...
Reliability of nanometer circuits is becoming a major concern in today’s VLSI chip design due to interferences from multiple noise sources as well as radiation-induced soft erro...
We have fabricated a Chip Multiprocessor prototype code-named Merlot to proof our novel speculative multithreading architecture. On Merlot, multiple threads provide wider issue wi...
