Due to high levels of integration and complexity, the design of multi-core SoCs has become increasingly challenging. In particular, energy consumption and distributing a single gl...
In the past few years, several research works have demonstrated that sampling can drastically speed up architecture simulation, and several of these sampling techniques are already...
This paper presents a new method to compute the probability distribution of the delay of a combinational circuit and uses it obtain an estimate of the yield of the process that ma...
