Abstract— We study leakage-power reduction in standby random access memories (SRAMs) during data-retention. An SRAM cell requires a minimum critical supply voltage (DRV) above wh...

In this paper we propose a design methodology for low-power, high-performance, process-variation tolerant architecture for arithmetic units. The novelty of our approach lies in th...
This paper presents a technique called “workload decomposition” in which the CPU workload is decomposed in two parts: on-chip and off-chip. The on-chip workload signifies the ...
A hybrid energy source has become a necessary solution for micro-scale applications, like wireless sensors, because of small form factor and extended lifetime requirements. Conven...
Memory-related activity is one of the major sources of energy consumption in embedded systems. Many types of memories used in embedded systems allow multiple operating modes (e.g....
