This paper proposes a new formalism for layout-driven optimization of datapaths. It is based on preserving an arithmetic bit level representation of the arithmetic circuit portion...
In this paper, we describe a software architecture supporting code generation from within Ptolemy II. Ptolemy II is a componentbased design tool intended for embedded and real-tim...
Multiple clock cycles are needed to cross the global interconnects for multi-gigahertz designs in nanometer technologies. For synchronous designs, this requires retiming and pipel...
As industry moves towards many-core chips, networks-on-chip (NoCs) are emerging as the scalable fabric for interconnecting the cores. With power now the first-order design constr...
