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...
We formally define--at the stream transformer level--a class of synchronous circuits that tolerate any variability in the latency of their environment. We study behavioral properti...

Leakage power has grown significantly and is a major challenge in microprocessor design. Leakage is the dominant power component in second-level (L2) caches. This paper presents t...
In this paper, a wavelet based approach is proposed for the model order reduction of linear circuits in time domain. Compared with Chebyshev reduction method, the wavelet reductio...
