Stochastic Computing: Embracing Errors in Architecture and Design of Processors and Applications
Energy Aware Probabilistic Multiplier
Energy-aware probabilistic multiplier: design and analysis, MSK Lau et al, Proceedings of
the 2009 international conference on Compilers, architecture, and synthesis for embedded
systems
Power Benefits of Imprecise ComputerArithmetic
Interesting Summary from above http://csl.stanford.edu/~christos/publications/2012.isat.ACSWTP.slides.pdf
1. Exact output with approximate HW
2. Approximate output with deterministic HW (unsound SW transformations)
3. Approximate output with approximate HW
An interesting keypoint:
statistical nature of application-level has to match statistical nature of underlying device!
