The development of grid algorithms is frequently hampered by limited means to describe topologies and lack of support for the invasive composition of legacy components in order to...
— On-chip decoupling capacitors (Decaps) are widely used to mitigate on-chip power supply noise. At and below 100nm on-chip decaps face leakage and area overhead problems associa...
Instruction set simulators are common tools used for the development of new architectures and embedded software among countless other functions. This paper presents a framework th...
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...
