This article presents the use of Answer Set Programming (ASP) to mine sequential patterns. ASP is a high-level declarative logic programming paradigm for high level encoding combinatorial and optimization problem solving as well as…

The growing gap between processor and memory speeds results in complex memory hierarchies as processors evolve to mitigate such divergence by taking advantage of the locality of reference. In this direction, the BSC performance analysis…

Answer set programming (ASP) aims to realize the AI vision: The user specifies the problem, and the computer solves it. Indeed, ASP has made this vision true in many application domains. However, will current ASP solving techniques scale up…

In the traditional Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) design flow, the concept of timing closure implies to reach convergence during physical synthesis such that, under a given area and power budget, the design works at the…

Error-tolerant applications, such as multimedia processing, machine learning, signal processing, and scientific computing, can produce satisfactory outputs even when approximate computations are performed. Approximate computing (AxC) is…

As AI-based applications become pervasive, CPU vendors are starting to incorporate matrix engines within the datapath to boost efficiency. Systolic arrays have been the premier architectural choice as matrix engines in offload accelerators.…

In the context of mapping high-level algorithms to hardware, we consider the basic problem of generating an efficient hardware implementation of a single threaded program, in particular, that of an inner loop. We describe a control-flow…

The data transfer between a processor and memory has become a design bottleneck in data-intensive applications. Processing-In-Memory (PIM) is a practical approach to overcome the memory wall bottleneck. The 4:2 compressor is suitable for…

ASP.NET web applications typically employ server controls to provide dynamic web pages, and data-bound server controls to display and maintain database data. Most developers use default properties of ASP.NET server controls when developing…

The importance of embedded systems in driving innovation in automotive applications continues to grow. Understanding the specific needs of developers targeting this market is also helping to drive innovation in RISC core design. This paper…

Reuse has been proposed as a microarchitecture-level mechanism to reduce the amount of executed instructions, collapsing dependencies and freeing resources for other instructions. Previous works have used reuse domains such as memory…

Driven by the rising popularity of cloud storage, the costs associated with implementing reliable storage services from a collection of fault-prone servers have recently become an actively studied question. The well-known ABD result shows…

The physical register file supports increasing the execution width and depth of a superscalar microprocessor to exploit more instruction-level parallelism. The efficient design of the physical register file is critical since its resources,…

This paper presents a stream processor generator, called SPGen, for FPGA-based system-on-chip platforms. In our research project, we use an FPGA as a common platform for applications ranging from HPC to embedded/robotics computing.…

Flexibility at hardware level is the main driving force behind adaptive systems whose aim is to realise microarhitecture deconfiguration 'online'. This feature allows the software/hardware stack to tolerate drastic changes of the workload…

Ising machines are specialized computers for finding the lowest energy states of Ising spin models, onto which many practical combinatorial optimization problems can be mapped. Simulated bifurcation (SB) is a quantum-inspired parallelizable…

An inherent security limitation with the classic multithreaded programming model is that all the threads share the same address space and, therefore, are implicitly assumed to be mutually trusted. This assumption, however, does not take…

With power consumption becoming a critical processor design issue, specialized architectures for low power processing are becoming popular. Several studies have shown that neural networks can be used for signal processing and pattern…

We propose a set of benchmarks that specifically targets a major cause of performance degradation in high performance computing platforms: irregular access patterns. These benchmarks are meant to be used to asses the performance of…

Instruction density and encoding efficiency are some of the few things directly affected by an instruction set architecture's design. In contrast, a processor's implementation often significantly influences performance, power efficiency,…
