Helper threading is a technique that utilizes a second core or logical processor in a multi-threaded system to improve the performance of the main thread. A helper thread executes...
As energy consumption in high-performance systems has increased, thermal management has become a big challenge. Providing a cost-effective and detailed temperature sensing mechani...
Cosmic-ray induced soft errors in cache memories are becoming a major threat to the reliability of microprocessor-based systems. In this paper, we present a new method to accurate...

Simulation-based microarchitecture research is often hindered by the slow speed of simulators. In this work, we propose a novel statistical technique to identify highly representa...
An important issue in modern cache designs is bridging the gap between wire and device delays. This warrants the use of more regular and modular structures to mask wire latencies....
