Abstract
Per-core vector support in multicores is not efficient since applications rarely sustain high DLP. We present two Power Gating (PG) schemes to dynamically control Vector co-Processors (VPs) shared by cores. ASIC and FPGA modeling show that PG can reduce the energy by 33% while maintaining high performance.
