Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reducing set-associative cache energy via way-prediction and selective direct-mapping
TL;DR: Two previously-proposed techniques, way-prediction and selective direct-mapping, are applied to reducing L1 cache dynamic energy while maintaining high performance, and caches achieve the energy-delay of sequential access while maintaining the performance of parallel access.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
MACACO: modeling and analysis of circuits for approximate computing
TL;DR: The results show that MACACO can help a designer to systematically evaluate the impact of approximate circuits, and to choose between different approximate implementations, thereby facilitating the adoption of such circuits for approximate computing.
Journal ArticleDOI
A process-tolerant cache architecture for improved yield in nanoscale technologies
TL;DR: This technique dynamically detects and replaces faulty cells by dynamically resizing the cache and surpasses all the contemporary fault tolerant schemes such as row/column redundancy and error-correcting code (ECC) in handling failures due to process variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gate leakage reduction for scaled devices using transistor stacking
TL;DR: A novel technique of input vector selection based on the relative contributions of gate and subthreshold leakage to the overall leakage is proposed for reducing total leakage in a circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Process variation in embedded memories: failure analysis and variation aware architecture
TL;DR: This paper analyzes SRAM cell failures under process variation and proposes new variation-aware cache architecture suitable for high performance applications that adaptively resizes the cache to avoid faulty cells, thereby improving yield.
