2D error correction for F/F based arrays using in-situ Real-Time Error Detection (RTD)
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThis work proposes in-situ Real-Time Error Detection (RTD): embedding hardware in a memory array for detecting a fault in the array when it occurs, rather than when it is read. RTD breaks the serialization between data ... -
A cost-effective clustered architecture
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1999)
Conference report
Open AccessIn current superscalar processors, all floating-point resources are idle during the execution of integer programs. As previous works show, this problem can be alleviated if the floating-point cluster is extended to execute ... -

Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyFreelance, part-time, work-at-home, and other flexible jobs are changing the concept of workplace, and bringing information and content exchange problems to companies. Geographically spread corporations may use remote ... -
A detailed methodology to compute soft error rates in advanced technologies
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policySystem reliability has become a key design aspect for computer systems due to the aggressive technology miniaturization. Errors are typically dominated by transient faults due to radiation and are strongly related to the ... -
A novel variation-tolerant 4T-DRAM cell with enhanced soft-error tolerance
(IEEE Computer Society Publications, 2012)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn view of device scaling issues, embedded DRAM (eDRAM) technology is being considered as a strong alternative to conventional SRAM for use in on-chip memories. Memory cells designed using eDRAM technology in addition ... -
An energy-efficient and scalable eDRAM-based register file architecture for GPGPU
(ACM, 2013)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe heavily-threaded data processing demands of streaming multiprocessors (SM) in a GPGPU require a large register file (RF). The fast increasing size of the RF makes the area cost and power consumption unaffordable for ... -
An hybrid eDRAM/SRAM macrocell to implement first-level data caches
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2009)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policySRAM and DRAM cells have been the predominant technologies used to implement memory cells in computer systems, each one having its advantages and shortcomings. SRAM cells are faster and require no refresh since reads are ... -

Circuit propagation delay estimation through multivariate regression-based modeling under spatio-temporal variability
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyWith every process generation, the problem of variability in physical parameters and environmental conditions poses a great challenge to the design of fast and reliable circuits. Propagation delays which decide circuit ... -
Combining RAM technologies for hard-error recovery in L1 data caches working at very-low power modes
