User authentication, which refers to the process of verifying the identity of a user, is becoming an important security requirement in various embedded systems. While conventional...
In this paper, we present a methodology for low-cost and rapid context switch for multithreaded embedded processors with realtime guarantees. Context-switch, which involves saving...
Symbiotic job scheduling boosts simultaneous multithreading (SMT) processor performance by co-scheduling jobs that have ‘compatible’ demands on the processor’s shared resour...
Software-based self-test (SBST) has recently emerged as an effective methodology for the manufacturing test of processors and other components in systems-on-chip (SoCs). By moving ...
Reconfigurable Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) on the market consist of full-fledged processors and large Field-Programmable Gate-Arrays (FPGAs). The latter can be used to implement the sy...
