We present a novel methodology for design space exploration using a two-steps scheme to optimize the number of virtual channel buffers (buffers take the premier share of the route...
In recent years several successful GALS realizations have been presented. The core of a GALS system is a locally synchronous island that is designed using industry standard synchr...
In response to current technology scaling trends, architects are developing a new style of processor, known as spatial computers. A spatial computer is composed of hundreds or eve...
