Design of programmable processors and embedded applications requires instruction-set simulators for early exploration and validation of candidate architectures. Interpretive simul...
Transistor leakage is poised to become the dominant source of power dissipation in digital systems, and reconfigurable devices are not immune to this problem. Modern FPGAs already...
This paper proposes a new solution for the diagnosis of faults into embedded RAMs, currently under evaluation within STMicroelectronics. The proposed scheme uses dedicated circuit...
Memory-processor integration o ers new opportunities for reducing the energy of a system. In the case of embedded systems, one solution consists of mapping the most frequently acc...
A critical component in the design of secure processors is memory encryption which provides protection for the privacy of code and data stored in off-chip memory. The overhead of ...
