The inherent reconfigurability of SRAM-based FPGAs enables the use of configurations optimized for the problem at hand. Optimized configurations are smaller and faster than their g...
Future space missions such as the Mars Science Laboratory and Project Constellation suggest the engineering of some of the most complex man-rated software systems. The present pro...
We introduce a method for providing lightweight daemons, called simplifiers, that attach themselves to program data. If a data item has a simplifier, the simplifier may be run aut...
Thermal effects are becoming increasingly important during integrated circuit design. Thermal characteristics influence reliability, power consumption, cooling costs, and performan...
