How Many CPU Cores is an FPGA Worth? Lessons Learned from Accelerating String Sorting on a CPU-FPGA System

Paolo Ienne, Mikhail Asiatici

String sorting is a fundamental kernel of string matching and database index construction; yet, it has not been studied as extensively as fixed-length keys sorting. Because processing variable-length keys in hardware is challenging, it is no surprise that ...

Design of approximate and precision-scalable circuits for embedded multimedia and neural-network processing

Vincent Frédéric Camus

Density, speed and energy efficiency of integrated circuits have been increasing exponentially for the last four decades following Moore's law. However, power and reliability pose several challenges to the future of technology scaling. Approximate computin ...

Discoidin domain receptor 1 gene variants are associated with decreased white matter fractional anisotropy and decreased processing speed in schizophrenia

Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez

DDR1 has been linked to schizophrenia (SZ) and myelination. Here, we tested whether DDR1 variants in people at risk for SZ influence white matter (WM) structural variations and cognitive processing speed (PS). First, following a case-control design (Study ...

End-to-End Industrial Study of Retiming

Giovanni De Micheli, Cunxi Yu

Sequential circuits are combinational circuits that are separated by registers. Retiming is considered as the most promising technique for optimizing sequential circuits, that involves moving the edge-triggered registers across the combinational logic with ...

Improved Masking for Tweakable Blockciphers with Applications to Authenticated Encryption

Robert Granger, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic

A popular approach to tweakable blockcipher design is via masking, where a certain primitive (a blockcipher or a permutation) is preceded and followed by an easy-to-compute tweak-dependent mask. In this work, we revisit the principle of masking. We do so a ...

DRAF: A Low-Power DRAM-based Reconfigurable Acceleration Fabric

Christos Kozyrakis

FPGAs are a popular target for application-specific accelerators because they lead to a good balance between flexibility and energy efficiency. However, FPGA lookup tables introduce significant area and power overheads, making it difficult to use FPGA devi ...

Cuckoo Directory: A Scalable Directory for Many-Core Systems

Babak Falsafi, Pejman Lotfi Kamran, Michael Ferdman

Growing core counts have highlighted the need for scalable on-chip coherence mechanisms. The increase in the number of on-chip cores exposes the energy and area costs of scaling the directories. Duplicate-tag based directories require highly associative st ...

Shore-MT: A Scalable Storage Manager for the Multicore Era

Anastasia Ailamaki, Babak Falsafi, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Ippokratis Pandis

Database storage managers have long been able to efficiently handle multiple concurrent requests. Until recently, however, a computer contained only a few single-core CPUs, and therefore only a few transactions could simultaneously access the storage manag ...
