Power has become a critical concern for battery-driven computing systems, on which many applications that are run are interactive. System-level voltage scaling techniques, such as...
As the d esig n-m anu factu ring interface becom es increasing ly com plicated with IC technolog y scaling , the correspond ing process variability poses g reat challeng es for na...

It has been widely recognized that the dynamic range information of an application can be exploited to reduce the datapath bitwidth of either processors or ASICs, and therefore th...
ASIC provides more than an order of magnitude advantage in terms of density, speed, and power requirement per gate. However, economic (cost of masks) and technological (deep micro...

This paper presents a systematic methodology to create customized structural macromodels for a specific analog circuit. The novel contributions of the method include definition of...
eriodically time-varying (LPTV) abstractions are useful for a variety of communication and computer subsystems. In this paper, we present a novel operator-based model-order reduct...
The challenge of verifying a modern microprocessor design is an overwhelming one: Increasingly complex micro-architectures combined with heavy time-to-market pressure have forced ...
In this paper we present a system level technique for mapping large, multiple-IP-block designs to channel-width constrained FPGAs. Most FPGA clustering tools [2, 3, 11] aim to red...
Trajectory methods sample the state trajectory of a circuit as it simulates in the time domain, and build macromodels by reducing and interpolating among the linearizations create...
