On the Impact of ISA Extension on Energy Consumption of I-Cache in Extensible Processors
Noushin Behboudi, Mehdi Kamal, Ali Afzali-Kusha
As is widely known, the computational speed and power consumption are two critical parameters in microprocessor design. A solution for these issues is the application specific inst…
AMR-MUL: An Approximate Maximally Redundant Signed Digit Multiplier
Saba Amanollahi, Mehdi Kamal, Ali-Afzali-Kusha +1
In this paper, we present an energy-efficient, yet high-speed approximate maximally redundant signed digit (MRSD) multiplier (called AMR-MUL) based on a parallel structure. For the…
Heterogeneous Multi-core Array-based DNN Accelerator
Mohammad Ali Maleki, Mehdi Kamal, Ali Afzali-Kusha
In this article, we investigate the impact of architectural parameters of array-based DNN accelerators on accelerator's energy consumption and performance in a wide variety of netw…
BRDS: An FPGA-based LSTM Accelerator with Row-Balanced Dual-Ratio Sparsification
Seyed Abolfazl Ghasemzadeh, Erfan Bank Tavakoli, Mehdi Kamal +2
In this paper, first, a hardware-friendly pruning algorithm for reducing energy consumption and improving the speed of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network accelerators is…
Simultaneous Reduction of Dynamic and Static Power in Scan Structures
Shervin Sharifi, Javid Jaffari, Mohammad Hosseinabady +2
Power dissipation during test is a major challenge in testing integrated circuits. Dynamic power has been the dominant part of power dissipation in CMOS circuits, however, in futur…
