      Accés obert
      Energy consumption has become one of the important factors in digital systems, because of the requirement to dissipate this energy in high-density circuits and to extend the battery life in portable systems such as devices ...
    • Reduction of connections for multibus organization 

      Lang, Tomás; Valero Cortés, Mateo; Fiol Mora, Miquel Àngel (1983-08)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The multibus interconnection network is an attractive solution for connecting processors and memory modules in a multiprocessor with shared memory. It provides a throughput which is intermediate between the single bus and ...
    • Synchronized access to streams in multiprocessors 

      Peiron Guàrdia, Montse; Valero Cortés, Mateo; Ayguadé Parra, Eduard; Lang, Tomás (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1993-10)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The synchronized and simultaneous access to several vectors that form a single stream occurs in SIMD vector multiprocessors as well as in MIMD superscalar multiprocessors with decoupled access. In this paper we propose a ...
    • Working-zone encoding for reducing the energy in microprocessor address buses 

      Musoll Cinca, Enric; Lang, Tomás; Cortadella, Jordi (1998-12)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The energy consumption due to input-output pins is a substantial part of the overall chip consumption. To reduce this energy, this work presents the working-zone encoding (WZE) method for encoding an external address bus, ...
