This paper describes a new on-demand wake-up prediction policy for reducing leakage power. The key insight is that branch prediction can be used to selectively wake up only the nee...
Joint module selection and retiming is a powerful technique to optimize the implementation cost and the speed of a circuit specified using a synchronous data-flow graph (DFG). In ...
While circuit density and power efficiency increase with each major advance in IC technology, reliability with respect to soft errors tends to decrease. Current solutions to this...
