Application-specific customization of the instruction set helps embedded processors achieve significant performance and power efficiency. In this paper, we explore customizatio...
FlexRay will very likely become the de-facto standard for in-vehicle communications. Its main advantage is the combination of high speed static and dynamic transmission of message...
An important aspect of Design for Yield for embedded SRAM is identifying the expected worst case behavior in order to guarantee that sufficient design margin is present. Previousl...
Individual Data Processing Units (DPUs) are commonly used for operational control and specific data processing of scientific space instruments. To overcome the limitations of trad...
AUTOSAR is a recent specification initiative which focuses on a model-driven architecture like methodology for automotive applications. However, needed engineering steps, or how-t...
The old school of analog designers, exemplified by pioneer Bob Pease, is becoming an extinct species. But the demand for analog/mixed-signal IP blocks has never been greater, espe...
Chip-multiprocessors are quickly becoming popular in embedded systems. However, the practical success of CMPs strongly depends on addressing the difficulty of multithreaded appli...
