This paper presents a technique for efficiently generating random numbers from a given probability distribution. This is achieved by using a generic hardware architecture, which t...
Many recent techniques for timing analysis under variability, in which delay is an explicit function of underlying parameters, may be described as parameterized timing analysis. T...
While process variations are becoming more significant with each new IC technology generation, they are often modeled via linear regression models so that the resulting performanc...

The exponential distribution is a key distribution in many event-driven Monte-Carlo simulations, where it is used to model the time between random events in the system. This paper...
This paper presents a hardware architecture for non-uniform random number generation, which allows the generator's distribution to be modified at run-time without reconfigura...
