A conceptually appealing approach to supporting a broad range of workloads is a system comprising many small cores that can be fused, on demand, into larger cores. We demonstrate ...
Measurements of an off-the-shelf DRAM chip confirm that different cells retain information for different amounts of time. This result extends to DRAM rows, or pages (retention tim...
The use of large instruction windows coupled with aggressive out-oforder and prefetching capabilities has provided significant improvements in processor performance. In this paper...
