Introduction to the special issue on the 2007 workshop on design, analysis, and simulation of chip multiprocessors (dasCMP'07)

The Network-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm has emerged as a promising solution for providing connectivity among the increasing number of cores that get integrated into both systems-on chip(SoC) and chip multiprocessors (CMP). In future high performance CMPs, ...

Chip multiprocessor architectures are becoming increasingly attractive as an option to provide high instruction throughput while keeping power and complexity under control. Such architectures have also been shown to have scalability and productivity ...

With the number of cores of chip multiprocessors (CMPs) rapidly growing as technology scales down, connecting the different components of a CMP in a scalable and efficient way becomes increasingly challenging. In this article, we explore the ...
