In a realistic design flow, circuit and system optimizations must interact with physical aspects of the design. For example, improvements in timing and power may require replacing ...
We revisit the problem of supertasking in Pfair-scheduled multiprocessor systems. In this approach, a set of tasks, called component tasks, is assigned to a server task, called a ...
The splitting method is a simulation technique for the estimation of very small probabilities. In this technique, the sample paths are split into multiple copies, at various stages...

This paper presents a revised rate control scheme based on an improved frame complexity measure. Rate control adopted by both MPEG-4 VM18 and H.264/AVC use a quadratic rate-distor...
VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
