Estimation of the area complexity of a Boolean function from its functional description is an important step towards a power estimation capability at the register transfer level (...
High-level power estimation, when given only a high-level design specification such as a functional or RTL description, requires high-level estimation of the circuit average acti...
Run-time Power Gating (RTPG) is a recent technique, which aims at aggressively reducing leakage power consumption. Energy breakeven time (EBT), or equivalent sleep time has been pr...
There is a growing need for accurate power models at the system level. Memory structures such as caches, Branch Target Buffers (BTBs), and register files occupy significant area i...
