Modern microprocessors employ one or two levels of on-chip cachesto bridge the burgeoning speeddisparities between the processor and the RAM. These SRAM caches are a major source ...
High performance processors use checkpointing to rapidly recover from branch mispredictions and possibly other exceptions. We demonstrate that conventional checkpointing becomes u...
Double-Gate (DG) transistor has emerged as the most promising device for nano-scale circuit design. Independent control of front and back gate in DG devices can be effectively use...
Early applications of smart cards have focused in the area of personal security. Recently, there has been an increasing demand for networked, multi-application cards. In this new ...
