Much effort in register transfer level (RTL) design has been devoted to developing "push-button" types of tools. However, given the highly complex nature, and lack of con...
—We survey state-of-the-art optimization methods that target low power dissipation in VLSI circuits. Optimizations at the circuit, logic, architectural and system levels are cons...
An effective method for focusing optimization effort on the most important parts of a design is to examine those elements on the critical path. Traditionally, the critical path is...

An abundance of research e orts in low power logic synthesis have so far been focused on and or or nand nor based logic. A typical approach is to rst generate an initial multi-lev...
In this paper, we present a system synthesis algorithm, called MOCSYN, which partitions and schedules embedded system specifications to intellectual property cores in an integrate...
