We present a new design environment, called System Canvas, targeted at DSP and telecommunication system designs. Our environment uses an easy-to-use block-diagram syntax to specif...
—Fuel cell (FC) is a viable alternative power source for portable applications; it has higher energy density than traditional Li-ion battery and thus can achieve longer lifetime ...
In embedded system design, the designer has to choose an onchip memory configuration that is suitable for a specific application. To aid in this design choice, we present a memory...
In this paper, we consider minimizing the system-level energy consumption through dynamic voltage scaling for embedded devices, while a) allowing concurrent access to shared objec...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) algorithms save energy by scaling down the processor frequency when the processor is not fully loaded. Many algorithms have been proposed for periodi...
