We present a new micro-architecture for evaluating functions based on piecewise quadratic interpolation. The micro-architecture consists mainly of a look-up table and two multiply...
We present new techniques for interactive cinematic lighting design of complex scenes that use procedural shaders. Deep-framebuffers are used to store the geometric and optical in...
Current microprocessor instruction set architectures are word oriented, with some subword support. Many important applications, however, can realize substantial performance benefi...
In high-level synthesis, accurate lower-bound estimation is helpful to explore the search space efficiently and to evaluate the quality of heuristic algorithms. For the lower-bound...
Dynamically reconfigurable architectures or systems are able to reconfigure their function and/or structure to suit the changing needs of a computation during run time. The increa...
