Microprocessor design has recently encountered many constraints such as power, energy,
reliability, and temperature. Among these challenging issues, temperature-related issues …

Mobile and IoT devices have proliferated our daily lives. However, these miniaturized
computing systems should be highly energy-efficient due to their ultrasmall form factor …

Side channels remain a challenge to information flow control and security in modern
computing platforms. Resource partitioning techniques that minimise the number of shared …

Elevated temperatures limit the peak performance of systems because of frequent
interventions by thermal throttling. Non-uniform thermal states across system nodes also …

In this work we present an approach for markerless motion capture (MoCap) of articulated
objects, which are recorded with multiple unsynchronized moving cameras. Instead of using …

Execution time is no longer the only metric by which computational systems are judged. In
fact, explicitly sacrificing raw performance in exchange for energy savings is becoming a …

Microelectronic circuits exhibit increasing variations in performance, power consumption,
and reliability parameters across the manufactured parts and across use of these parts over …

Heterogeneous multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoCs) powering mobile platforms
integrate multiple asymmetric CPU cores, a GPU, and many specialized processors. When …

The evolution of microprocessors has been hindered by their increasing power consumption
and the heat generation speed on-die. High temperature impairs the processor's reliability …

In this paper, a figure of merit for the cooling capacity (FOMq) of phase change materials
(PCMs) is defined from the analytical solution of the two-phase Neumann–Stefan problem of …
