DPM (Dynamic Power Management) is an effective technique for reducing the energy consumption of embedded systems that is based on migrating to a low power state when possible. Whi...
In 90-nm technology, dynamic power is still the largest power source in FPGAs [1], and signal glitches contribute a large portion of the dynamic power consumption. Previous powera...
The drive for low-power, high performance computation coupled with the extremely high design costs for ASIC designs, has driven a number of designers to try to create a flexible, ...

Emerging single-chip heterogeneous multiprocessors feature hundreds of design elements contending for shared resources, making it difficult to isolate performance impacts of indiv...
The ability of modern SAT solvers to produce proofs of unsatisfiability for Boolean formulas has become a powerful tool for EDA applications. Proofs are generated from a resolve t...
The test time for core-external interconnect shorts/opens is typically much less than that for core-internal logic. Therefore, prior work on test infrastructure design for core-ba...
The ability to account for the growing impacts of multiple process variations in modern technologies is becoming an integral part of nanometer VLSI design. Under the context of ti...
