This paper illustrates a technique for specifying the detailed timing, logical operation, and compositional circuit design of digital circuits in terms of ordinary state machines w...
Security and reliability are of paramount importance in designing and building real-time systems because any security failure can put the public and the environment at risk. In th...
-Conventionallyself-test hardware is added after synthesis is completed. For highly sequential circuits like controllersthis design method eitherleads to high hardware overheadsor ...
—Logical initializability is the property of a gate-level circuit whereby it can be driven to a unique start state when simulated by a three-valued (0, 1, ) simulator. In practic...
