Abstract :
In this paper, we present several techniques for low-power design, including a descriptor-based low-power scheduling algorithm, design of dynamic voltage generator, and dual threshold voltage assignments, for network security processors. The experiments show that the proposed methods and designs provide the opportunity for network security processors to achieve the goals of both high performance and low power.
