We propose a methodology for applying gate-level logic transformations to optimize power in digital circuits. Statistically simulated[14] switching information, gate delays, signa...
Abstract. Many modern systems are designed as a set of interconnected reactive subsystems. The subsystem verification task is to verify an implementation of the subsystem against t...
We present our experiences with the formal verification of an automotive chip used to control the safety features in a car. We used a BDD based model checker in our work. We descr...

Extracting the inductance of complex interconnect topologies is a formidable task, and simulating the resulting dense partial inductance matrix is even more difficult. Furthermore...
This paper describes a fully automatic standard-cell layout synthesis system, CELLERITY. The system is flexible in supporting a wide variety of process technologies and a range of...

This paper presents for the first time low energy simultaneous memory and register allocation. A minimum cost network flow approach is used to efficiently solve for minimum energy...
Dataflow computation models enable simpler and more efficient management of the memory hierarchy - a key barrier to the performance of many parallel programs. This paper describes...
The level of security provided by digital rights management functions and cryptographic protocols depend heavily on the security of an embedded secret key. The current practice of...
Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architectures exploit instruction level parallelism (ILP) with the help of the compiler to achieve higher instruction throughput with minimal hard...
