Simulation is still one of the most important subtasks when designing a VLSI circuit. However, more and more elements on a chip increase simulation runtimes. Especially on transis...
This paper describes an efficient error simulator able to analyze functional VHDL descriptions. The proposed simulation environment can be based on commercial VHDL simulators. Al...
We present a novel method for developing reconfigurable systems targeted at embedded system applications. We show how an existing object oriented design method (MOOSE) has been ad...
Novel methodology and algorithms to seamlessly integrate logic synthesis and physical placement through a transformational approach are presented. Contrary to most placement algor...

This paper presents a methodology towards synthesis of high performance analog circuits. Layout parasitics are estimated and compensated during circuit sizing. Physical layout con...
Clock and data recovery circuits are essential components in communication systems. They directly influence the bit-error-rate performance of communication links. It is desirable...
In current microprocessors and systems, an increasingly high silicon portion is derived through automatic synthesis, with designers working exclusively at the RT-level, and design...
