—A unified optimization framework is presented for simultaneous gate sizing and placement. These processes are unified using Lagrangian multipliers, which synchronize the efforts...
In order to enable real-time software-based video encoding, in this work we optimized the prediction stage of an H.264 video encoder, in the complexity sense. Thus, besides lookin...
—We propose a multi-layer parallel decoding algorithm and VLSI architecture for decoding of structured quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check codes. In the conventional layered de...
—A method of precise measurement of on-chip analog voltages in a mostly-digital manner, with minimal overhead, is presented. A pair of clock signals is routed to the node of an a...
Abstract— Multi-core processors are about to conquer embedded systems — it is not the question of whether they are coming but how the architectures of the microcontrollers shou...

In this paper, a new abnormal activity detection algorithm is proposed for multi-camera surveillance applications. The proposed algorithm models the entire scene covered by the mu...
— Two coupled logistic maps whose parameters are forced into periodic varying are investigated. From the investigation of bifurcation in this system, nonexistence of odd periodic...
— A new on-die temperature sensor that operates at low supply voltages and exhibits low process sensitivity and good linearity over a wide temperature range is introduced. When c...

—Linearity and spectral performance test contributes most cost of ADC test. This paper presents a new method for testing an ADC’s SNR from its linearity test data. The method d...
