We consider derivative free methods based on sampling approaches for nonlinear optimization problems where derivatives of the objective function are not available and cannot be dir...
—Model-based test derivation for real-time system has been proven to be a hard problem for exhaustive test suites. Therefore, techniques for real-time testing do not aim to exhau...
Networks-on-chip (NoCs) are becoming increasingly important in general-purpose and application-specific multi-core designs. Although uniform router configurations are appropriate ...

In performance-driven interconnect design, delay estimators are used to determine both the topology and the layout of good routing trees. We address the class of moment-matching, ...
Bacterial foraging optimization algorithm (BFOA) has been widely accepted as a global optimization algorithm of current interest for distributed optimization and control. BFOA is i...
