Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab have designed a system where programs can have access to ad hoc optimally allocated cache memory. In a simulation test system with ...

In the eighties, computer processors became faster and faster, while memory access times stagnated and hindered additional performance increases. Something had to be done to speed up memory access and ...

When shopping for a new CPU, you're likely to come across many different CPU specifications, such as cores, clock speed, TDP, ...

Open Core Protocol (OCP) [1][2] is a common standard for Intellectual Property (IP)core interfaces. OCP facilitates IP core plug-and-play and simplifies reuse by decoupling the cores from the on-chip ...

The authors report on the design of efficient cache controller suitable for use in FPGA-based processors. Semiconductor memory which can operate at speeds comparable with the operation of the ...

In the early days of computing, everything ran quite a bit slower than what we see today. This was not only because the computers' central processing units – CPUs – were slow, but also because ...

Integrating processors, sensors, and data exchange functionality into everyday objects, the Internet of Things (IoT) pushes computing capabilities far beyond desktops and servers. On December 5, ...

There are three levels of Processor Cache viz; L1, L2, and L3. The more L2 and L3 cache your system has, the faster the data will be fetched, the faster the program will be executed, and the more ...

AMD is leveraging one of its latest families of EPYC server CPUs, code-named Genoa X, in-house to run the electronic design automation (EDA) tools it uses for product development. Based on TSMC's 5-nm ...
