Future processors are expected to observe increasing rates of hardware faults. Using Dual-
Modular Redundancy (DMR), two cores of a multicore can be loosely coupled to …

Technology scaling has provided system designers with an exploding transistor budget, far
more than what was available when the core principles behind many existing commodity …

A system serialization capability is provided to facilitate processing in those environments
that allow multiple processors to update the same resources. The system serialization …

Chip multiprocessors (CMPs) or multicores are emerging as the dominant computing
platform. Recently, Hill and Marty developed the model which augmenting Amdahlʼs law to …

A system serialization capability is provided to facilitate processing in those environments

In this paper, we describe the architecture of MipsCoreDuo, a microprocessor which is
designed for LSI Design Contest in Okinawa 2009. MipsCoreDuo is a multifunction dual …

Workload characterization is the basis for similarity analysis, which is the core idea behind
benchmark subsetting to pick up the most representative programs or program slices. The …

Nowadays, most of the mobile platforms are equipped with state-of-the-art ARM Cortex-A
series superscalar Out-of-Order (OoO) mobile microprocessors. However, due to the …

Chip design is at an inflection point. It is now clear that chip multiprocessors (CMPs) will
dominate product offerings for the forseeable future. Such designs integrate many …

As the computing industry enters the multicore era, exponential growth in the number of
transistors on a chip continues to present challenges and opportunities to computer …
