    • Volatile STT-RAM Scratchpad Design and Data Allocation for Low Energy 

      Rodríguez, Gabriel; Touriño, Juan; Kandemir, Mahmut (Association for Computing Machinery, 2015)
      [Abstract] On-chip power consumption is one of the fundamental challenges of current technology scaling. Cache memories consume a sizable part of this power, particularly due to leakage energy. STT-RAM is one of several ...
    • Walking Recognition in Mobile Devices 

      Casado, Fernando E.; Rodríguez García, Germán; Iglesias Rodríguez, Roberto; Regueiro, Carlos V.; Barro, Senén; Canedo-Rodriguez, Adrián (MDPI AG, 2020-02-21)
      [Abstract] Presently, smartphones are used more and more for purposes that have nothing to do with phone calls or simple data transfers. One example is the recognition of human activity, which is relevant information for ...
