— Achieving reliability in fault tolerant systems requires both avoidance and redundancy. This study focuses on avoidance as it pertains to the design of microchips. The lifecycl...
This paper introduces the Low-Power Intelligent Tool Environment (LITE), an object oriented tool set designed for power visualization, analysis, and optimization. These tools lever...
Distributed clientisewer models are becoming increasingly prevalent in multimedia systems and advanced user interface design. A multimedia application, for example, may play and r...
In this paper we investigate the statistics of multiplier operands and identify two characteristics of their distribution that have important consequences for the design of low po...
With increasingly smaller feature sizes and higher on-chip densities, the power dissipation of VLSI systems has become a primary concern for designers. This paper first describes...
