This paper examines the tradeoffs between flexibility, area, and power dissipation of programmable clock networks for FieldProgrammable Gate Arrays (FPGA's). The paper begins...
f abstraction as applicable to break the problem's complexity, and innovating better techniques to address complexity of new microarchitectural features. Validation techniques...
The combination of flit-buffer flow control methods and latency-insensitive protocols is an effective solution for networks-on-chip (NoC). Since they both rely on backpressure...
Design debugging is a major bottleneck in modern VLSI design flows as both the design size and the length of the error trace contribute to its inherent complexity. With typical des...
In this paper, the selection of a BASE Case was every bit as important as the simulation itself. The production team had been familiar with simulations and had used their results ...
