—This paper focuses on SIMD processor synthesis and proposes a SIMD instruction set/functional unit synthesis algorithm. Given an initial assembly code and a timing constraint, t...
Abstract— To meet the challenge of increasing design complexity, designers are turning to system level design languages to model systems at a higher level of abstraction. This pa...
Abstract— We describe dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) algorithms for real-time systems with both periodic and aperiodic tasks. Although many DVS algorithms have been developed for ...
As gate delays decrease faster than wire delays for each technology generation, buffer insertion becomes a popular method to reduce the interconnect delay. Several modern buffer in...
— We study the delays faced by instructions in the pipeline of a superscalar processor and its impact on power and performance. Instructions that are ready-on-dispatch (ROD) are ...
- This paper shows that divide-and-conquer derives a minimum sum-of-products expression (MSOP) of functions that have an AND bi-decomposition when at least one of the subfunctions ...
– In this paper, we propose a method for extracting the spectral information of a multi-gigahertz jittery signal. This method may utilize existing on-chip single-shot period meas...
