Micro BTB: A High Performance and Storage Efficient Last-Level Branch Target Buffer for Servers

Vishal Gupta

High-performance branch target buffers (BTBs) and the L1I cache are key to high-performance front-end. Modern branch predictors are highly accurate, but with an increase in code footprint in modern-day server workloads, BTB and L1I misses are still frequen ...

Low-Cost Side-Channel Secure Standard 6T-SRAM-Based Memory With a 1% Area and Less Than 5% Latency and Power Overheads

Robert Giterman

Side-channel attacks constitute a concrete threat to IoT systems-on-a-chip (SoCs). Embedded memories implemented with 6T SRAM macrocells often dominate the area and power consumption of these SoCs. Regardless of the computational platform, the side-channel ...

A new post-synthetic polymerization strategy makes metal-organic frameworks more stable

Wendy Lee Queen, Emad Oveisi, Daniel Teav Sun, Shuliang Yang, Li Peng, Mehrdad Asgari, Olga Trukhina, Safak Bulut, Abbas Jamali

Metal-organic frameworks are of interest in a number of host-guest applications. However, their weak coordination bonding often leads to instability in aqueous environments, particularly at extreme pH, and hence, is a challenging topic in the field. In thi ...

VNToR: Network Virtualization at the Top-of-Rack Switch

Edouard Bugnion, Georgios Ioannidis, Sam David Whitlock, Jonas Fietz

Cloud providers typically implement abstractions for net- work virtualization on the server, within the operating sys- tem that hosts the tenant virtual machines or containers. Despite being flexible and convenient, this approach has funda- mental problems ...

Local Conformational Switching of Supramolecular Networks at the Solid/Liquid Interface

Klaus Kern, Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder, Fernando Pablo Cometto

We use the electric field in a scanning tunneling microscope to manipulate the transition between open and close packed 2D supramolecular networks of neutral molecules in nonpolar media. We found that while the magnitude of the applied field is not decisiv ...
