Power consumption is a troublesome design constraint for emergent systems such as IBM’s BlueGene /L. If current trends continue, future petaflop systems will require 100 megawat...
The cost functions used to evaluate logic synthesis transformations for FPGAs are far removed from the final speed and routability determined after placement, routing and timing a...
Efficient energy and performance estimation of embedded software is a critical part of any system-level design flow. Macromodeling based estimation is an attempt to speed up estim...
RTL power macromodeling is a mature research topic with a variety of equation and table-based approaches. Despite its maturity, macromodeling is not yet widely accepted as an indu...
