present, as clearly and completely as possible, the nature and characteristics of modern-day …

Amenable to extensive parallelization, Google's web search application lets different queries
run on different processors and, by partitioning the overall index, also lets a single query use …

A single-ISA heterogeneous multi-core architecture is achip multiprocessor composed of
cores of varying size, performance, and complexity. This paper demonstrates that …

Abstract Intel's Hyper-Threading Technology brings the concept of simultaneous multi-
threading to the Intel Architecture. Hyper-Threading Technology makes a single physical …

The instruction-level parallelism found in a conventional instruction stream is limited. Studies
have shown the limits of processor utilization even for today's superscalar microprocessors …

The doubling of microprocessor performance every three years has been the result of two
factors: more transistors per chip and superlinear scali ng of the processor clock with …

Trends in VLSI technology scaling demand that future computing devices be narrowly
focused to achieve high performance and high efficiency, yet also target the high volumes …

This paper examines the area, power, performance, and design issues for the on-chip
interconnects on a chip multiprocessor, attempting to present a comprehensive view of a …

The microprocessor industry is currently struggling with higher development costs and
longer design times that arise from exceedingly complex processors that are pushing the …
