State re-encoding for peak current minimization
In a synchronous finite state machine (FSM), huge current peaks are often observed at the moment of state transition. Previous low power state encoding algorithms focus on the red...

An Algorithm for Face-Constrained Encoding of Symbols Using Minimum Code Length
Different logic synthesis tasks have been formulated as input encoding problems but restricted to use a minimum number of binary variables. This paper presents an original column ...

Temperature- and energy-constrained scheduling in multitasking systems: a model checking approach
The ongoing scaling of semiconductor technology is causing severe increase of on-chip power density and temperature in microprocessors. This has raised urgent requirement for both...

Theoretical bounds for switching activity analysis in finite-state machines
- The objective of this paper is to provide lower and upper bounds for the switching activity on the state lines in Finite State Machines (FSMs). Using a Markov chain model for the...

Rewarding Behaviors
Markov decision processes (MDPs) are a very popular tool for decision theoretic planning (DTP), partly because of the welldeveloped, expressive theory that includes effective solu...
