In this paper, we introduce a Shared Multiple Rooted XORbased Decomposition Diagram XORDD to represent functions with multiple outputs. Based on the XORDD representation, we dev...
Traditional metrics used to compare hardware designs include area, performance, and power. However, these metrics do not form a complete evaluation of reconfigurable hardware. For...
This paper addresses the problem of computational error modeling and analysis. Choosing different word-lengths for each functional unit in hardware implementations of numerical al...
