In a few technology generations, limitations of fabrication processes will make accurate design time power estimates a daunting challenge. Static leakage current which comprises a...
Abstract— Reliability enhancements are traditionally implemented through redundancies at the system level or through the use of harden-cell-designs at the circuit level. Reliabil...
In this paper, we investigate a combination of two techniques — instruction coding and instruction re-ordering — for optimizing energy in embedded processor control. We presen...
The Software-Defined Radio (SDR) concept aims to enabling costeffective multi-mode baseband solutions for wireless terminals. However, the growing complexity of new communication ...
