— We conduct a complete analysis of the effect of digit redundancy in adders on their delay, power, energy, and energy-delay product. To our knowledge, this is the first such de...

A schedule of a Petri Net (PN) represents a set of firing sequences that can be infinitely repeated within a bounded state space, regardless of the outcomes of the nondeterminis...

Synchronous Data Flow Graphs (SDFGs) are a useful tool for modeling and analyzing embedded data flow applications, both in a single processor and a multiprocessing context or for...

Recently, the formal approach of I–Systems has been newly hed through an abstract axiomatic system where events in system components are solely derived and defined from their b...

In the modern design environments, different modules, available in existent libraries, may obey different architectural styles and execution models. Reaching a well– behaved com...
— When synthesising an asynchronous circuit from an STG, one often encounters the state explosion problem. In order to alleviate this problem one can decompose the STG into small...

An optimized functional design space exploration method for multimedia applications is proposed. The basis of the method is a way of representing the dependency and the concurrenc...

In this paper, we show how to obtain causal semantics distinguishing ”earlier than” and ”not later than” causality between events from algebraic semantics of Petri nets. J...
Signal Transition Graphs (STGs) are a popular formalism for the specification of asynchronous circuits. A necessary condition for the implementability of an STG is the existence ...
