ParaLog: enabling and accelerating online parallel monitoring of multithreaded applications

Instruction-grain lifeguards monitor the events of a running application at the level of individual instructions in order to identify and help mitigate application bugs and security exploits. Because such lifeguards impose a 10-100X slowdown on existing pl ...

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 ...

Virtual Ways: Efficient Coherence for Architecturally Visible Storage in Automatic Instruction Set Extensions

Edoardo Charbon, Paolo Ienne, Ties Jan Henderikus Kluter, Samuel Burri, Philip Brisk

Customizable processors augmented with application-specific Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) have begun to gain traction in recent years. The most effective ISEs include Architecturally Visible Storage (AVS), compiler-controlled memories accessible exclus ...

Architectural Support for Coherent Architecturally Visible Storage in Instruction Set Extensions

Ties Jan Henderikus Kluter

When it comes to performance, embedded systems share many problems with their higher-end counterparts. The growing gap between top processor frequency and memory access speed, the memory wall, is one such problem. Driven, in part, by low energy consumption ...

Thermal-Aware Compilation for Register Window-Based Embedded Processors

David Atienza Alonso, Mohamed Mostafa Sabry Aly

The development of compiler-based mechanisms to optimize the thermal profile of large register files to improve the processor reliability has become an important issue. Thermal hotspots have been known to cause severe reliability issues, while the thermal ...

Memory Organization and Data Layout for Instruction Set Extensions with Architecturally Visible Storage

Paolo Ienne, Yusuf Leblebici, Philip Brisk, Panagiotis Athanasopoulos

Present application specific embedded systems tend to choose instruction set extensions (ISEs) based on limitations imposed by the available data bandwidth to custom functional units (CFUs). Adoption of the optimal ISE for an application would, in many cas ...

Flexible Hardware Acceleration for Instruction-Grain Lifeguards

Babak Falsafi, Evangelos Vlachos

Instruction-grain lifeguards monitor executing programs at the granularity of individual instructions to quickly detect bugs and security attacks, but their fine-grain nature incurs high monitoring overheads. This article identifies three common sources of ...

A putative implication for fronto-parietal connectivity in out-of-body experiences

Olaf Blanke, Christine Mohr

Self-processing has been related to the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the temporo-parietal junction (TPJ) as well as to their connectivity. So far, out-of-body experiences (OBEs), impressive transient deviations of intact bodily self-integration, could be as ...

On the Reliability of Post-CMOS and SET Systems

Alexandre Schmid, Yusuf Leblebici, Milos Stanisavljevic

The necessity of applying fault-tolerant techniques to increase the reliability of future nano-electronic systems is an undisputed fact, dictated by the high density of faults that will plague these chips. The averaging and thresholding fault-tolerant tech ...
