The long-word and very long-word addition required in cryptography applications generally requires custom hardware support provided by ASICs or application-specific instructions i...

FPGAs have been used for prototyping of ASICs, for low-volume ASIC replacement and for systems requiring in-field hardware upgrades. However, the potential to use dynamic reconfig...
Designing ASICs for each new generation of backbone routers is a time intensive and fiscally draining process. In this paper we focus on the design of a programmable architecture...
As the complexity of integrated circuits increases, the ability to make post-fabrication changes to fixed ASIC chips will become more and more attractive. This ability can be real...
We introduce a novel chip fabrication technique called “brick and mortar”, in which chips are made from small, pre-fabricated ASIC bricks and bonded in a designer-specified a...
