Given large circuit sizes, high clock frequencies, and possibly extreme operating environments, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are capable of heating beyond their designed...
With the circuit density available in today’s ASIC design systems, increased integration is possible creating more complexity in the design of a System on a Chip (SoC). IBM’s ...

Gating the clock is an important technique used in low power design to disable unused modules of a circuit. Gating can save power by both preventing unnecessary activiiy in the lo...
In this paper, we propose a technique to implement communication protocols as hardware circuits using a model of concurrent EFSMs with multi-way synchronization. Since use of mult...
