Statistical design and optimization for adaptive post-silicon tuning of MEMS filters
Large-scale process variations can significantly limit the practical utility of microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) for RF (radio frequency) applications. In this paper we desc...

Towards fault-tolerant embedded systems with imperfect fault detection
Many state-of-the-art approaches on fault-tolerant system design make the simplifying assumption that all faults are detected within a certain time interval. However, based on a d...

Approaching the theoretical limits of a mesh NoC with a 16-node chip prototype in 45nm SOI
In this paper, we present a case study of our chip prototype of a 16-node 4x4 mesh NoC fabricated in 45nm SOI CMOS that aims to simultaneously optimize energy-latency-throughput f...

Analysis of DC current crowding in through-silicon-vias and its impact on power integrity in 3D ICs
Due to the large geometry of through-silicon-vias (TSVs) and their connections to the power grid, significant current crowding can occur in 3D ICs. Prior works model TSVs and pow...

Run-time power-down strategies for real-time SDRAM memory controllers
Powering down SDRAMs at run-time reduces memory energy consumption significantly, but often at the cost of performance. If employed speculatively with real-time memory controller...
