Mobile and PC/server class processor companies continue to roll out flagship core microarchitectures that are faster than their predecessors. Meanwhile placing more cores on a chip coupled with constant supply voltage puts per-core energy consumption at a premium. Hence, the cha…

The systolic array research was pioneered by H. T. Kung and C. E. Leiserson. Systolic arrays are special purpose synchronous architectures consisting of simple, regular and modular processors which are regularly interconnected to form an array. Systolic arrays are well suited fo…

With advances in semiconductor technology, processors are becoming larger and more complex. Future processor designers will face an enormous design space, and must evaluate more architecture design points to reach a final optimum design. This exploration is currently performed u…
