Abstract. Quantitative verification techniques are able to establish system properties such as "the probability of an airbag failing to deploy on demand" or "the exp...
In programming high performance applications, shared address-space platforms are preferable for fine-grained computation, while distributed address-space platforms are more suita...
Access/execute architectures have several advantages over more traditional architectures. Because address generation and memory access are decoupled from operand use, memory laten...
Dual-core processors (and, to an extent, multicore processors) have been adopted in recent years to provide platforms that satisfy the performance requirements of popular multimed...
With the advent of system-on-a-chip design, many application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) now require multiple design clocks that operate asynchronously to each other. This...
