This paper presents a new audio coder that includes two techniques to improve the sound quality of the audio coding system. First, a forward masking model is proposed. This model e...
— As silicon CMOS devices are scaled down into the nanoscale regime, new challenges at both the device and system level are arising. While some of these challenges will be overco...
The continued scaling of device dimensions and the operating voltage reduces the critical charge and thus natural noise tolerance level of transistors. As a result, circuits can p...
Increasing focus on power dissipation issues in current microprocessors has led to a host of proposals for clock gating and other power-saving techniques. While generally effectiv...
Multicore SOCs rely on runtime thermal measurements using on-chip sensors for DTM. In this paper we address the problem of estimating the actual temperature of on-chip thermal sen...
