The growing complexity of systems and their implementation into silicon encourages designers to look for model designs at higher levels of abstraction and then incrementally build ...
Abstract--Microfluidics-based biochips enable the precise control of nanoliter volumes of biochemical samples and reagents. They combine electronics with biology, and they integrat...
The last decade has witnessed the emergence of the application-specific instruction-set processor (ASIP) as a viable platform for embedded systems. Extensible ASIPs allow the user ...
For real-time applications, it is necessary to estimate the worst-case performance early in the design process without actual hardware implementation. While the non-preemptive task...
PSP and the backward propagation of variance (BPV) method are used to characterize the statistical variations of metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs). BPV s...

Abstract--Functional verification is one of the major bottlenecks in system-on-chip design due to the combined effects of increasing complexity and lack of automated techniques for...
