Abstract— Clock-gating techniques are very effective in the reduction of the switching activity in sequential logic circuits. In particular, recent work has shown that significa...
Abstract—Continuously shrinking feature sizes cause an increasing vulnerability of digital circuits. Manufacturing failures and transient faults may tamper the functionality. Aut...
