Multi-Ported GC-eDRAM Bitcell with Dynamic Port Configuration and Refresh Mechanism

Embedded memories occupy an increasingly dominant part of the area and power budgets of modern systems-on-chips (SoCs). Multi-ported embedded memories, commonly used by media SoCs and graphical processing units, occupy even more area and consume higher pow ...

Silent Bugs Matter: A Study of Compiler-Introduced Security Bugs

Mathias Josef Payer, Jianhao Xu

Compilers assure that any produced optimized code is semantically equivalent to the original code. However, even "correct" compilers may introduce security bugs as security properties go beyond translation correctness. Security bugs introduced by such corr ...

Gyrokinetic simulations on many- and multi-core architectures with the global electromagnetic Particle-In-Cell Code ORB5

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Claudio Gheller

Gyrokinetic codes in plasma physics need outstanding computational resources to solve increasingly complex problems, requiring the effective exploitation of cutting-edge HPC architectures. This paper focuses on the enabling of ORB5, a state-of-the-art, fir ...

Towards Scalable Synchronization on Multi-Cores

Vasileios Trigonakis

The shift of commodity hardware from single- to multi-core processors in the early 2000s compelled software developers to take advantage of the available parallelism of multi-cores. Unfortunately, only few---so-called embarrassingly parallel---applications ...

Fast, Nearly Optimal ISE Identification with I/O Serialization through Maximal Clique Enumeration

Paolo Ienne, Philip Brisk, Ajay Kumar Verma

The last decade has witnessed the emergence of the application-specific instruction-set processor (ASIP) as a viable platform for embedded systems. Extensible ASIPs allow the user to augment a base processor with instruction set extensions (ISEs) that exec ...

A microprocessor having at least one application specific functional unit and method to design same

Paolo Ienne

Customisable embedded processors that are available on the market make it possible for designers to speed up execution of applications by using Application-specific Functional Units (AFUs), implementing Instruction-Set Extensions (ISEs). Furthermore, techn ...

Fast, quasi-optimal, and pipelined instruction-set extensions

Paolo Ienne, Philip Brisk, Ajay Kumar Verma

Nowadays many customised embedded processors offer the possibility of speeding up an application by implementing it using Application-Specific Functional units (AFUs). However, the AFUs must satisfy certain constraints in terms of read and write ports betw ...

Reverse-Engineering Drivers for Safety and Portability

George Candea, Vitaly Chipounov

Device drivers today lack two important properties: guaranteed safety and cross-platform portability. We present an approach to incrementally achieving these properties in drivers, without requiring any changes in the drivers or operating system kernels. W ...

Platform-independent profiling in a virtual execution environment

Philippe Moret

Virtual execution environments, such as the Java virtual machine, promote platform-independent software development. However, when it comes to analyzing algorithm complexity and performance bottlenecks, available tools focus on platform-specific metrics, s ...

A profiling framework for high level design space exploration for memory and system architectures

In 1971, the first microprocessor produced in mass production had 2300 transistor and was able to compute 60'000 operations per second at 740 kHz. Nowadays, even a common gaming console uses a central unit including 243 millions of transistors running at 4 ...
