Loihi: A Neuromorphic Manycore Processor with On-Chip Learning

Mike Davies, Narayan Srinivasa, Tsung-Han Lin et al. · 1 Jan 2018

Loihi is a 60-mm2 chip fabricated in Intels 14-nm process that advances the state-of-the-art modeling of spiking neural networks in silicon. It integrates a wide range of novel features for the field, such as hierarchical connectivity, dendritic compartments, synaptic delays, and, most importantly, programmable synaptic learning rules. Running a spiking convolutional form of the Locally…

Myrinet: a gigabit-per-second local area network

N.J. Boden, D. Cohen, Robert E. Felderman et al. · 1 Jan 1995

The Myrinet local area network employs the same technology used for packet communication and switching within massively parallel processors. In realizing this distributed MPP network, we developed specialized communication channels, cut-through switches, host interfaces, and software. To our knowledge, Myrinet demonstrates the highest performance per unit cost of any current LAN.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Designing Reliable Systems from Unreliable Components: The Challenges of Transistor Variability and Degradation

Shekhar Borkar · 1 Nov 2005

As technology scales, variability in transistor performance continues to increase, making transistors less and less reliable. This creates several challenges in building reliable systems, from the unpredictability of delay to increasing leakage current. Finding solutions to these challenges require a concerted effort on the part of all the players in a system design. This article…

Design challenges of technology scaling

Shekhar Borkar · 1 Jan 1999

Scaling advanced CMOS technology to the next generation improves performance, increases transistor density, and reduces power consumption. Technology scaling typically has three main goals: 1) reduce gate delay by 30%, resulting in an increase in operating frequency of about 43%; 2) double transistor density; and 3) reduce energy per transition by about 65%, saving 50%…

IEEE Micro template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Micro format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Micro template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Micro use?
IEEE Micro uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," IEEE Micro, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Micro?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEcsmag LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Micro document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the IEEE Micro template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Micro format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is IEEE Micro?
IEEE Micro, an IEEE Computer Society magazine. It is a engineering and computer science journal, published by IEEE.
Can I export a submission-ready IEEE Micro PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official IEEE Micro template (the IEEEcsmag class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the IEEE Micro template cost?
You can start writing in the IEEE Micro template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready IEEE Micro PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
