The growing complexity and production cost of processor-based systems have imposed big constraints in SoC design of new systems. GPPs and ASICs are unable to fit the tight perform...

While participatory design makes end-users part of the design process, we might also want the resulting system to be open for interpretation, appropriation and change over time to...
This paper addresses issues involved when an architect explore alternative designs including non-functional requirements; in our approach, non-functional requirements are expresse...

Multidimensional modeling requires specialized design techniques. Though a lot has been written about how a data warehouse should be designed, there is no consensus on a design me...
Designers of SoCs with non-digital components, such as analog or MEMS devices, can currently use high-level system design languages, such as SystemC, to model only the digital par...

System-on-chip and system-in-package result in increased number of I/O cells and complicated constraints for both chip designs and package designs. This renders the traditional ma...
Human-computer interaction research often includes a significant design component. In cases where software or other tools are developed and described, but no empirical evaluation ...
