Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) is an emerging type of memory device that provides fast, byte-addressable, and high-capacity durable storage. NVM sits on the memory bus and allows durable data structures designs similar to the in-memory equivalent ones. Expensiv ...
Modern GPUs suffer from cache contention due to the limited cache size that is shared across tens of concurrently running warps. To increase the per-warp cache size prior techniques proposed warp throttling which limits the number of active warps. Warp thr ...
Dynamically-scheduled elastic circuits generated by High-Level Synthesis (HLS) tools are inherently out-of-order, following the flow of data rather than the evolution of an instruction pointer. Components of the circuit which access memory need to be conne ...
With the end of Dennard scaling, server power has emerged as the limiting factor in the quest for more capable datacenters. Without the benefit of supply voltage scaling, it is essential to lower the energy per operation to improve server efficiency. As th ...
Nowaday, the world of processors is still dominated by the RISC architectures, which foundations have been laid down in the 70's. The RISC concept may be summarized by one word : simplicity. With this concept, much simpler architectures are born, in partic ...
