Increasingly significant variational effects present a great challenge for delivering desired clock skew reliably. Non-tree clock network has been recognized as a promising approac...
A modular synthesis flow is essential for a scalable and hierarchical design methodology. This paper considers a particular modular flow where each module has interface methods an...
The growing number of instances of breaches in information security in the last few years has created a compelling case for efforts towards secure electronic systems. Embedded sys...

Extensible processors, which allow customization for an application domain by extending the core instruction set architecture, are becoming increasingly popular for embedded syste...
As multiprocessor systems-on-chip become a reality, performance modeling becomes a challenge. To quickly evaluate many architectures, some type of high-level simulation is require...
