A tool that automates the floating-point to fixed-point conversion (FFC) process for digital signal processing systems is described. The tool automatically optimizes fixed-point d...
Programmable circuit design has played an important role in improving design productivity over the last few decades. By imposing structure on the design, efficient automation of s...
This paper describes a strategy for verifying data-hazard correctness of out-of-order processors that implement register-renaming. We define a set of predicates to characterize re...
This paper presents a set of comprehensive techniques for the intratask voltage scheduling problem to reduce energy consumption in hard real-time tasks of embedded systems. Based ...

This paper shows a method to decompose a given multipleoutput circuit into two circuits with intermediate outputs. We use a BDD for characteristic function (BDD for CF) to represe...
Platforms have become an important concept in the design of electronic systems. We present here the motivations behind the interest shown and the challenges that we have to face t...

Increasingly significant variational effects present a great challenge for delivering desired clock skew reliably. Non-tree clock network has been recognized as a promising approac...
A modular synthesis flow is essential for a scalable and hierarchical design methodology. This paper considers a particular modular flow where each module has interface methods an...
The growing number of instances of breaches in information security in the last few years has created a compelling case for efforts towards secure electronic systems. Embedded sys...
