Multimedia and communication algorithms from embedded system domain often make extensive use of floating-point arithmetic. Due to the complexity and expense of the floating-poin...
This paper presents an effective approach to formally verify SystemC designs. The approach translates SystemC models into a Petri-Net based representation. The Petri-net model is ...
In this paper the concept of a reconfigurable hardware macro to be used as a generic building block in lowpower, low-cost SoC for multioperable GNSS positioning is described, feat...
This paper we proposes compiler-based leakage optimization strategy for on-chip scratch-pad memories (SPMs). The idea is to keep only a small set of SPM regions active at a given ...

This paper proposes a yield optimization method for standard-cells under timing constraints. Yield-aware logic synthesis and physical optimization require yield-enhanced standard ...
This paper investigates the sensitivity of real-time systems running applications under operating systems that are subject to soft-errors. We consider applications using different...
