In this work we consider battery powered portable systems which either have Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) or voltage and frequency scalable processors as their main proces...
This paper describes two research projects that develop new low-cost techniques for testing devices with multiple high-speed (2 to 5 Gbps) signals. Each project uses commercially ...
In this paper, the program control unit of an embedded RISC processor is enhanced with a novel zerooverhead loop controller (ZOLC) supporting arbitrary loop structures with multip...
On-chip buses are typically designed to meet performance constraints at worst-case conditions, including process corner, temperature, IR-drop, and neighboring net switching patter...

As the scale of electronic devices shrinks, “electronic textiles” (e-textiles) will make possible a wide variety of novel applications which are currently unfeasible. Due to t...
Variability in process parameters is making accurate timing analysis of nano-scale integrated circuits an extremely challenging task. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for...
Fueled by an unprecedented desire for convenience and self-service, consumers are embracing embedded technology solutions that enhance their mobile lifestyles. Consequently, we wi...
