As the number of cores on a chip increases, power consumed by the communication structures takes significant portion of the overall power-budget. The individual components of the...
Design simplification is becoming necessary to respect the target time-to-market of SoCs, and this goal can be obtained by using predesigned IP-cores. However, their correct inte...
The memory subsystem is a major contributor to the performance, power, and area of complex SoCs used in feature rich multimedia products. Hence, memory architecture of the embedded...

Real Time embedded system designers are facing extreme challenges in underlying architectural design selection. It involves the selection of a programmable, concurrent, heterogene...
Test access is a major problem for core-based systemon-chip (SOC) designs. Since cores in an SOC are not directly accessible via chip inputs and outputs, special access mechanisms...
