—The contribution of memory latency to execution time continues to increase, and latency hiding mechanisms become ever more important for efficient processor design. While high-...
In the absence of a single module interface standard, integration of pre-designed modules in System-on-Chip design often requires the use of protocol converters. Existing approach...
