The accuracy of an approximate computation is the distance between the result that the
computation produces and the corresponding fully accurate result. The reliability of the …

While the memory subsystem is already a major contributor to energy consumption of
embedded systems, the guard-banding required for masking the effects of ever increasing …

We present Topaz, a new task-based language for computations that execute on
approximate computing platforms that may occasionally produce arbitrarily inaccurate …

In this research, we introduce the Image Approximate Block Compressor (IABC), a fast
(single cycle), simple and high-performance cache block compressor targeting domain …

As the end of Dennard scaling looms, both the semiconductor industry and the research
community are exploring for innovative solutions that allow energy efficiency and …

Many modern applications (such as multimedia processing, machine learning, and big-data
analytics) exhibit an inherent tradeoff between performance and the accuracy of the …

We introduce the concepts of cross-layer virtual/physical sensing and actuation to achieve
resiliency for the emerging class of heterogeneous many-core Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) …
