High-level power estimation, when given only a high-level design specification such as a functional or RTL description, requires high-level estimation of the circuit average acti...
A modeling approach is presented that captures the dependence of the power dissipation of a combinational logic circuit on its input output signal switching activity. The resulting...
The intuitive properties of configurations of planar non-overlapping closed curves (boundaries) are presented as a pure boundary mathematics. The mathematics, which is not incorpor...
We introduce CoCasl as a light-weight but expressive coalgebraic extension of the algebraic specification language Casl. CoCasl allows the nested combination of algebraic datatype...
Automatic cost analysis has interesting applications in the context of verification and certification of mobile code. For instance, the code receiver can use cost information in o...
