whitepaper Statistical Static Timing Analysis Technology2007-10-01 Fujitsu
  With CMOS technology scaling down to the nanometer realm, process variations have been increased. In particular, the increase of delay variations has seriously affected the design periods and timing yields. To estimate more accurately these delay variations, Statistical Static Timing Analysis (SSTA), which considers delay variations statistically, has been proposed. SSTA is expected to shorten the design Turnaround Time (TAT) and predict the timing yields. Research on practical applications of SSTA has already been conducted at Fujitsu Laboratories. The paper has developed SSTA tools for use in designs for processors and Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) in cooperation with Fujitsu and Fujitsu VLSI. This paper describes the delay variations and basic SSTA techniques and introduces SSTA applications to Fujitsu's processor and ASIC design flows.

whitepaper Optimization of Silicon Technology for the IBM System z92007-02-13 IBM
  IBM 90-nm Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) technology was used for the key chips in the System z9 processor chipset. Along with system design, optimization of some critical features of this technology enabled the z9 to achieve double the system performance of the previous generation. These technology improvements included logic and SRAM FET optimization, mask fabrication, lithography and wafer processing, and interconnect technology. Reliability improvements such as SRAM optimization and burn-in reliability screen are also described.

whitepaper Improving the Performance of Embedded Superscalar Microprocessors by Adding Partial Pipelines2005-08-20 University of York
  This paper introduces adding a "Partial" pipeline to a base embedded superscalar microprocessor implementation to achieve cost effective performance improvements. This method is exemplified by adding a "Partial" Integer Pipeline (IP) to the TriCore TM 2.0 MCU/DSP core. The "Partial" IP pipeline, designed based on TriCore 2.0 simulation results of the EEMBC benchmark suite, executes a subset of TriCore 2.0 IP instructions. They used the basic block sampling and simulation technique to simulate enhanced TriCore 2.0 models, and obtained results indicating that adding the partial IP pipeline can achieve similar performance improvements to duplicating the full IP pipeline. Their approach can be applied to the early design stages of microprocessor development in order to explore design spaces.

whitepaper Taking It to the Next Level: The AMD Geode LX 800@0.9W Processor - Embedded X86 Processor Performance Rating System White Paper2005-05-20 Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)
  Clock speed is not the only factor that goes into performance, and with this study it is shown that it is logical to rate a processor based on a suite of recognized benchmarks. Memory subsystem, graphics, bus speed, and instructions per clock cycle all play a role in overall performance. The AMD Geode LX 800@0.9w processor earns its nomenclature based on the measured performance.
