Testing embedded cores is a challenge because access to core I/Os is limited. The user-defined logic (ZJDL) surrounding the core may restrict the set of test vectors that can be a...
A Built-In Self-Test (BIST) approach is presented for the Internal Configuration Access Port (ICAP) and Frame Error Correcting Code (ECC) logic cores embedded in Xilinx Virtex-4 an...
We propose a technique for reducing the energy spent in the memory-processor interface of an embedded system during the execution of firmware code. The method is based on the idea ...

Abstract. Power efficiency has become a key design trade-off in embedded system designs. For system-on-a-chip embedded systems, an external bus interconnects embedded processor co...
