The increasing use of microprocessor cores in embedded systems as well as mobile and portable devices creates an opportunity for customizing the cache subsystem for improved perfo...
— Due to the long simulation times of the reference input sets, microarchitects resort to alternative techniques to speed up cycle-accurate simulations. However, the reduction in...

Complex applications implemented as Systems on Chip (SoCs) demand extensive use of system level modeling and validation. Their implementation gathers a large number of complex IP ...
Delay variations (jitter) in computations and communications cause degradation of performance in control applications. There are many sources of jitter, including variations in ex...
We consider the problem of timing analysis in the presence of known false paths. The main difficulty in adaptation of classical breadth-first search to the problem is that at each...
