Dataflow synchronous languages have attracted considerable interest in domains such as real-time control and hardware design. The potential benefits are promising: Discrete-time...
We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
Abstract—Silicon debug poses a unique challenge to the engineer because of the limited access to internal signals of the chip. Embedded hardware such as trace buffers helps overc...

High-speed asynchronous ripple FIFOs may be easily embedded in synchronous environments and can elegantly handle the problem of forwarding data between clock domains. In cases whe...
This paper describes a multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) system for the synthesis of efficient non-linear VLSI circuit modules. The EA takes the specification for a no...
