In this work we reduce interconnect power dissipation in Symmetric Multiprocessors or SMPs. We revisit snoopy cache coherence protocols and reduce unnecessary interconnect activit...
Low power design techniques have been employed for more than two decades, however an emerging problem is satisfying the test power constraints for avoiding destructive test and im...

Growing test data volume and overtesting caused by excessive scan capture power are two of the major concerns for the industry when testing large integrated circuits. Various test...
The availability of SiGe HBT devices has opened a door for Gigahertz FPGAs. However, the large device power consumption limits its scale. In order to solve this problem, a Multipl...
