Due to increasing power densities, both on-chip average and peak temperatures are fast becoming a serious bottleneck in processor design. This is due to the cost of removing the h...
With the constant advances in technology that lead to the increasing of the transistor count and processor frequency, power dissipation is becoming one of the major issues in high...
Recently, there has been considerable interest in providing “trusted computing platforms” using hardware — TCPA and Palladium being the most publicly visible examples. In th...
