This paper discusses an approach for solving combinatorial problems by combining software and dynamically reconfigurable hardware (configware). The suggested technique avoids inst...
Scratch-pad memory is becoming an important fixture in embedded multimedia systems. It is significantly more efficient than the cache, in performance and power, and has the add...
A critical component in the design of secure processors is memory encryption which provides protection for the privacy of code and data stored in off-chip memory. The overhead of ...
Speculative pre-execution is a promising prefetching technique which uses an auxiliary assisting thread in addition to the main program flow. A prefetching thread (p-thread), whic...
In this paper, we show how to integrate SAT-based techniques into the task of system synthesis by regarding the the problems: (i) feasibility check and (ii) evaluation of quality....
