As power consumption of the clock tree dominates over 40% of the total power in modern high performance VLSI designs, measures must be taken to keep it under control. One of the m...
Abstract— In a direct-mapped instruction cache, all instructions that have the same memory address modulo the cache size, share a common and unique cache slot. Instruction cache ...
As the CMOS technology is scaled into the dimension of nanometer, the clock frequencies and die sizes of ICs are shown to be increasing steadily [5]. Today, global wires that requ...
Measurements of an off-the-shelf DRAM chip confirm that different cells retain information for different amounts of time. This result extends to DRAM rows, or pages (retention tim...
Abstract—Recent advances in computer technology and wireless communications have enabled the emergence of stream-based sensor networks. In such sensor networks, real-time data ar...
