Dynamic Prediction based Scheduling for TM

Anmol Tomar

Transactional memory (TM) provides an intuitive and simple way of writing parallel programs. TMs execute parallel programs speculatively and deliver better performance than conventional lock based parallel programs. However, in certain scenarios when an ap ...

Reduction of Register File Delay Due to Process Variability in VLIW Embedded Processors

Giovanni De Micheli, David Atienza Alonso, José Luis Ayala Rodrigo

Process variation in future technologies can cause severe performance degradation since different parts of the shared Register File (RF) in VLIW processors may operate at various speeds. In this paper we present a complete approach that handles speed varia ...

Exploring Temperature-Aware Design of Memory Architectures in VLIW Systems

David Atienza Alonso, José Luis Ayala Rodrigo

This paper presents a thermal model to analyze the temperature evolution in the shared register files found on VLIW systems. The use of this model allows the analysis of several factors that have an strong impact on the heat transfer: layout topology, plac ...

Thermal Characterization and Thermal Management in Processor-Based Systems

David Atienza Alonso

The register file is one of the hottest devices in processor- based systems. Leakage reduction techniques and DTM mechanisms re- quire a thermal characterization of the hardware. This paper presents a thermal model to analyze the temperature evolution in t ...

Deep-submicron embedded processor architectures for high-performance, low-cost and low-power

Sylvain Aguirre

Because the market has an insatiable appetite for new functionality, performance is becoming an increasingly important factor. The telecommunication and network domains are especially touched by this phenomenon but they are not the only ones. For instance, ...

Last-touch correlated data streaming

Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman

Recent research advocates address-correlating predictors to identify cache block addresses for prefetch. Unfortunately, address-correlating predictors require correlation data storage proportional in size to a program's active memory footprint. As a result ...

Light structuring for massively parallel optical trapping

Johann Rohner

Optical trapping, discovered in the 70's, allows moving and stabilizing small objects which sizes varies from atoms to particles of several microns. This technique, based on momentum conservation, is particularly well suited for manipulating biological mat ...

Energy-Aware Compilation and Hardware Design for VLIW Embedded Systems

David Atienza Alonso, José Luis Ayala Rodrigo

Tomorrow's embedded devices need to run multimedia applications demanding high computational power with low energy consumption constraints. In this context, the register file is a key source of power consumption and its inappropriate design and management ...
