500+ MHz designs using deep-submicron (DSM) copper interconnects require accurate and efficient modeling of cladding-metals’ frequency-dependent impedance [1]. In this paper, fo...
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the battery life (or duration of service) in battery-powered CMOS circuits. We first show that the battery efficiency (or utili...
In EPONs, differentiated services enable higher quality of service (QoS) for some queues over others. However, owing to the coarse granularity of DiffServ, DiffServ in EPONs can ha...
To maximize the velocity of business value delivery, Alistair Cockburn talks of having a process that is "barely sufficient." At Landmark Graphics we developed some guid...

In safety-critical systems, certain safety constraints must be satisfied before an operation can be performed. Such constraints typically depend on the state of the system at the ...
