This paper explores the problem of efficiently ordering interprocessor communication operations in statically-scheduled multiprocessors for iterative dataflow graphs. In most digi...
This paper presents an e cient hardware algorithm for variable-precision logarithm. The algorithm uses an iterative te chnique that employs table lookups and polynomial approximat...

MicroSIMD architectures incorporating subword parallelism are very efficient for application-specific media processors as well as for fast multimedia information processing in gen...
Sorting long sequences of keys is a problem that occurs in many different applications. For embedded systems, a uniprocessor software solution is often not applicable due to the l...
High level modeling and (quantitative) performance analysis of signal processing systems requires high level models for the applications(algorithms) and the implementations (archi...

Abstract. We have developed the first hardware and software (intellectual property) metering scheme that enables reliable low overhead proofs for the number of manufactured parts a...
Abstract. Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new method for designing systems for real-world applications. In this paper it is applied for evolving a prosthetic hand c...
This paper introduces the concept of polymorphic electronics (polytronics) –referring to electronics with superimposed built-in functionality. A function change does not require ...

Abstract. The Embryonics project is inspired by some of the basic processes of molecular biology, such as the embryonic development of living beings. Transposing these processes in...
Abstract. Evolutionary methods are now beginning to be used routinely in design applications. However, even with computing speeds growing continuously, for many complex design prob...
