Dynamic software bug detection tools are commonly used because they leverage run-time information. However, they suffer from a fundamental limitation, the Path Coverage Problem: t...
Industry has shifted towards multi-core designs as we have hit the memory and power walls. However, single thread performance remains of paramount importance since some applicatio...
Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures have been adopted by a growing number of multi-core designs as a flexible and scalable solution to the increasing wire delay constraints in the...
