This paper surveys the characteristics of multimedia systems. Multimedia applications today are dominated by compression and decompression, but multimedia devices must also implem...
This paper proposes a novel architecture synthesis algorithm for single-loop single-bit ∆Σ modulators. We defined a generic modulator architecture and derived its noise and si...
In this paper, we provide a methodology to perform both bus partitioning and bus frequency assignment to each of the bus segment simultaneously while optimizing both power consump...

Memory space limitation is a serious problem for many embedded systems from diverse application domains. While circuit/packaging techniques are definitely important to squeeze la...
Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) approach is used to meet the simulation speed as well as cycle accuracy for large scale SoC performance analysis. We implemented a transaction-lev...

The lifetime of wireless sensor networks can be increased by minimizing the number of active nodes that provide complete coverage, while switching off the rest. In this paper, we ...
Operating frequency of a pipelined circuit is determined by the delay of the slowest pipeline stage. However, under statistical delay variation in sub-100nm technology regime, the...
— We propose a sensitivity-based method to allocate decaps incorporating leakage constraints and tighter data and clock interactions. The proposed approach attempts to allocate d...
Developing a functional prototype of a system-on-chip provides a unifying vehicle for model validation and system refinement. Keeping the prototype executable everal abstraction l...
