Extensible processors, which allow customization for an application domain by extending the core instruction set architecture, are becoming increasingly popular for embedded syste...
As multiprocessor systems-on-chip become a reality, performance modeling becomes a challenge. To quickly evaluate many architectures, some type of high-level simulation is require...

CT An efficient statistical timing analysis algorithm that can handle arbitrary (spatial and structural) causes of delay correlation is described. The algorithm derives the entire ...
Code compression has been shown to be an effective technique to reduce code size in memory constrained embedded systems. It has also been used as a way to increase cache hit ratio...

As technology advances, the metal width is decreasing with the length increasing, making the resistance along the power line increase substantially. Together with the nonlinear sc...
Starting from a model of the within-die systematic variations using principal components analysis, a model is proposed for estimation of the parametric yield, and is then applied ...
