This paper presents the novel idea of multi-placement structures, for a fast and optimized placement instantiation in analog circuit synthesis. These structures need to be generat...
Scratch-pad memory is becoming an important fixture in embedded multimedia systems. It is significantly more efficient than the cache, in performance and power, and has the add...
In this paper, we present an accurate but very fast soft error rate (SER) estimation technique for digital circuits based on error propagation probability (EPP) computation. Exper...
Increase in system level modeling has given rise to a need for efficient functional validation of models above cycle accurate level. This paper presents a technique for comparing...
— Sharing IP blocks in today’s competitive market poses significant high security risks. Creators and owners of IP designs want assurances that their content will not be illeg...
