Most operating systems enforce process isolation through hardware protection mechanisms such as memory segmentation, page mapping, and differentiated user and kernel instructions....
– Clocking is an essential component of any embedded system design. However, traditional design techniques are either short of clocking support or too complex for users. The Unif...
Translating digital signal processing (DSP) software into its finite-precision hardware implementation is often a timeconsuming task. We describe a new static analysis technique ...
