The role of custom design in ASIC Chips
Custom design, in which the designer controls the physical structure of the chip, can greatly improve the speed, power, and delay of an ASIC chip without affecting design time. Th...

Synthesis and optimization of coordination controllers for distributed embedded systems
A main advantage of control composition with modal processes [4] is the enhanced retargetability of the composed behavior over a wide variety of target architectures. Unlike previ...
