Saving Register-File Leakage Energy by Register-usage Exploiting
Applying dynamic voltage scaling technique to design a low-power register file plays an important role in modern embedded-processor design. In this paper, we propose a compiler-aided approach to find out in a program which and when the registers would not be used, and to turn these unused registers into low power mode through voltagescaling controls. The proposed approach can be partitioned int...
متن کاملExploiting Register-Usage for Saving Register-File Energy in Embedded Processors
Low power register file design plays an important role in an embedded processor. In this paper, we exploit register-usage in a program to find out unused registers, and turn these unused registers into low power mode by annotating power-controlling instructions. The whole work is performed by applying the hardware/software co-design principle. For the hardware part, we propose a voltage-scaling...
متن کاملReducing Register File Power Consumption by Exploiting Value Lifetime Characteristics
With the trend towards wider instruction issue and larger instruction windows, register les grow both in terms of size and number of read/write ports. However, large multi-ported register les consume a substantial amount of power, and may also limit the cycle time of a processor. This work attempts to address these issues by taking advantage of the facts that many register accesses show extreme...
متن کاملShield: Cost-Effective Soft-Error Protection for Register Files
Device scaling and large integration increase the vulnerability of microprocessors to transient errors. One of the structures where errors can be most harmful is the register file, because it is part of the architectural state. Moreover, because the register file is frequently read, an error can quickly propagate to other parts of the processor. This paper presents Shield, a novel, cost-effecti...
متن کاملFive Quantum Register Error Correction Code For Higher Spin Systems
I construct a quantum error correction code (QECC) in higher spin systems using the idea of multiplicative group character. Each N state quantum particle is encoded as five N state quantum registers. By doing so, this code can correct any quantum error arising from any one of the five quantum registers. This code generalizes the well-known five qubit perfect code in spin-1/2 systems and is show...
