Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have long held the promise of allowing designers to create systems with performance levels close to custom circuits but with a software-like...
A processor core, previously implemented in a 0.25m Al process, is redesigned for a 0.13m Cu process to create a dualcore processor with 1MB integrated L2 cache, offering an effic...

Abstract. Many modern systems are designed as a set of interconnected reactive subsystems. The subsystem verification task is to verify an implementation of the subsystem against t...
Current trends in processor design are pointing to deeper and wider pipelines and superscalar architectures. The efficient use of these resources requires speculative execution, ...
