Design of embedded systems is a complex task that requires design cycles founded upon formal notation, so that the synthesis from specification to implementation can be carried ou...
This paper presents a novel application involving two important Software Engineering research areas: process modeling and software reuse. The Spiral Model is a risk-driven process...
Spurred by technology leading to the availability of millions of gates per chip, system-level integration is evolving as a new paradigm, allowing entire systems to be built on a s...
Synchronous Data Flow (SDF) is a well-known model of computation that is widely used in the control engineering and digital signal processing domains. Existing scheduling methods ...
In this paper, we propose a novel misted-bundle layout structure for minimizing inductive coupling noise. In this structure,we create severalrouting regions and re-order the routi...
In this paper, we propose an approach for the analysis of power supply noise in the frequency domain for power/ground (P/G) networks of tree topologies. We model the P/G network a...
We present an error catch and analysis (ECA) system for semiconductor memories. The system consists of a test algorithm generator called TAGS, a fault simulator called RAMSES, and...
In this paper, we develop a new standard cell placement tool, Dragon2000, to solve large scale placement problem effectively. A top-down hierarchical approach is used in Dragon200...
