Functional verification of microprocessors is one of the most complex and expensive tasks in the current system-on-chip design process. A significant bottleneck in the validatio...
A class of discrete event synthesis problems can be reduced to solving language equations F • X ⊆ S, where F is the fixed component and S the specification. Sequential synthes...

This paper describes an improved approach to Boolean network optimization using internal don’t-cares. The improvements concern the type of don’t-cares computed, their scope, a...
—Presented are a methodology and a DFII-based tool for AC-stability analysis of a wide variety of closed-loop continuous-time (operational amplifiers and other linear circuits). ...
Transient errors are one of the major reasons for system downtime in many systems. While prior research has mainly focused on the impact of transient errors on datapath, caches an...
Let’s be clear from the outset: SoC can most certainly make use of UML; SoC just doesn’t need more UML, or even all of it. The advent of model mappings, coupled with marks tha...
