There has been a proliferation of block-diagram environments for specifying and prototyping DSP systems. These include tools from academia like Ptolemy [3], and GRAPE [7], and com...
The paper describes the concept and implementation of a telecom emulator that features both recongurability and high-speed processing. The emulator can be easily transmuted into ...
Designs which do not fully utilize their arithmetic datapath components typically exhibit a significant overhead in power consumption. Whenever a module performs an operation who...
In this paper we address the problem of designing very high throughput finite state machines (FSMs). The presence of loops in sequential circuits prevents a straightforward and g...
Today’s system-on-a-chip designs consist of many cores. To enable cores to be easily integrated into different systems, many propose creating cores with their internal logic sep...
This paper presents a methodology for parallel and distributed simulation of VHDL using the PDES (parallel discrete-event simulation) paradigm. To achieve better features and perf...
Dynamic power management saves power by shutting down idle devices. Several management algorithms have been proposed and demonstrated effective in certain applications. We quantit...
