We use a formal tool to extract Finite State Machines (FSM) based representations (lists of states and transitions) of sequential circuits described by flip-flops and gates. The...
After the discussion on the difference between floorplanning and packing in VLSI placement design, this paper adapts the floorplanner that is based on the Q-sequence to a packin...
Due to the increasing operating frequencies and the manner in which the corresponding integrated circuits and systems must be designed, the extraction, modeling and simulation of ...

The design of application (-domain) specific instructionset processors (ASIPs), optimized for code size, has traditionally been accompanied by the necessity to program assembly, ...
To enable fast and accurate evaluation of HW/SW implementation choices of on-chip communication, we present a method to automatically generate timed OS simulation models. The meth...
In this paper, we study and implement a routabilitydriven floorplanner with buffer block planning. It evaluates the routability of a floorplan by computing the probability that ...

We consider the implication of deep sub-micron VLSI technology on the design of communication frameworks for parallel DSP systems-on-chip. We assert that distributed data transfer...
