While the dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) techniques are efficient in reducing the dynamic energy consumption for the processor, varying voltage alone becomes less effective for t...
Application specific processors offer the potential of rapidly designed logic specifically constructed to meet the performance and area demands of the task at hand. Recently, t...
Test factoring creates fast, focused unit tests from slow systemwide tests; each new unit test exercises only a subset of the functionality exercised by the system tests. Augmenti...
Minimizing energy consumption is an important issue in the design of real-time embedded systems. As many embedded systems are powered by rechargeable batteries, the goal is to ext...
Portable embedded systems are being driven by consumer demands to be thermally efficient, perform faster, and have longer battery life. To design such a system, various hardware un...
