A comprehensive approach to modeling, characterizing and optimizing for metastability in FPGAs
Metastability is a phenomenon that can cause system failures in digital circuits. It may occur whenever signals are being transmitted across asynchronous or unrelated clock domain...

Clock Synchronization through Handshake Signalling
We present a method for synchronizing pausible clocks in GALS (Globally Asynchronous, Locally Synchronous) systems. In contrast to most conventional GALS schemes the method is not...
