Software cache-based side channel attacks present serious threats to modern computer systems. Using caches as a side channel, these attacks are able to derive secret keys used in ...
Driven by continuing scaling of Moore's law, chip multiprocessors and systems-on-a-chip are expected to grow the core count from dozens today to hundreds in the near future. ...

Fine-grained dynamic voltage/frequency scaling (DVFS) is an important tool in managing the balance between power and performance in chip-multiprocessors. Although manufacturing pr...
For highest performance, a modern microprocessor must be able to determine if an instruction is ready in the same cycle in which it is to be selected for execution. This creates a...
