A five-fold increase in leakage current is predicted with each technology generation. While
Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) is known to reduce dynamic power consumption, it also …

NAND-flash-based SSDs (solid-state disks) are recently used in embedded computers to
replace power-hungry disks. This paper presents a hybrid approach to large SSDs, which …

Local storage is required in many sensor network applications, both for archival of detailed
event information, as well as to overcome sensor platform memory constraints. Recent gains …

In some implementations, a programmable memory con troller is provided to control access
to different types of memory modules in a main memory. Non-volatile memory modules and …

Main memory is managed by receiving a command from an application to read data
associated with a virtual address that is mapped to the main memory. A memory controller …

(57) ABSTRACT A computer system is disclosed including a printed circuit board (PCB)
including a plurality of traces, at least one pro cessor mounted to the PCB to couple to some …

BACKGROUND Pluggable memory modules are often used to add more dynamic random
access memory (DRAM) to a pre-existing computer system. However, sometimes there are …

A broad range of embedded networked sensor (ENS) systems for critical environmental
monitoring applications now require complex, high peak power dissipating sensor devices …

Replacing power-hungry disks with NAND-flash-based solid-state disks (SSDs) is a recently
emerging trend in flash-memory applications. One important SSD design issue is achieving …
