—Beyond signal processing applications, frames are also powerful tools for modeling the sensing and information processing of many biological and man-made systems that exhibit in...
Kahn Process Networks is an appealing model of computation for programming and mapping applications onto multi-processor platforms. Autonomous processes communicate through unboun...
This paper describes and exercises a new design paradigm for cast components. The methodology integrates foundry process simulation, non-destructive evaluation (nde), stress analys...
The integrated circuits design flow is rapidly moving towards higher description levels. However, test-related activities are lacking behind this trend, mainly since effective faul...
Concurrent Action-Oriented Specifications (CAOS) model the behavior of a synchronous hardware circuit as asynchronous guarded at an abstraction level higher than the Register Tran...
