Leveraging Wire Properties at the Microarchitecture Level
2006
IEEE Micro
All energy and energy-delay values are normalized with respect to Model 1. Energy-delay is computed by multiplying total processor energy by number of executed cycles. ...
In addition to this basic latency-bandwidth trade-off, we can leverage the latencypower trade-off by introducing the option of transferring data on slower, power-efficient wires. ...
The hardware required to detect narrow-bit-width data is easy to implement-the PowerPC 603, for example, has hardware for detecting the number of leading zeros; it then uses this value to determine latency ...

Value-based clock gating and operation packing: dynamic strategies for improving processor power and performance
2000
ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
Overall, these optimizations highlight an increasing opportunity for value-based optimizations to improve both power and performance in current microprocessors. ...
The large address space needs of many current applications have pushed processor designs toward 64-bit word widths. ...
The reason for choosing the 16-bit mark is more arbitrary and reflects the need to balance two trade-offs in the selection of the boundary at which to clock gate. ...
