Reuse of IP blocks has been advocated as a means to conquer the complexity of today's system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Component integration and verification in such systems is ...
In this paper, we show how to obtain causal semantics distinguishing ”earlier than” and ”not later than” causality between events from algebraic semantics of Petri nets. J...
In the modern design environments, different modules, available in existent libraries, may obey different architectural styles and execution models. Reaching a well– behaved com...
Signal Transition Graphs (STGs) are a popular formalism for the specification of asynchronous circuits. A necessary condition for the implementability of an STG is the existence ...
An optimized functional design space exploration method for multimedia applications is proposed. The basis of the method is a way of representing the dependency and the concurrenc...
