Dynamic reconfiguration allows to selectively substitute blocks of logic at run-time in order to improve the area efficiency of a FPGA design. This paper presents the design of a ...
Lowering power consumption in microprocessors, whether used in portables or not, has now become one of the most critical design concerns. On-chip cache memories tend to occupy dom...

We present detailed analytical models for estimating the energy dissipation in conventional caches as well as low energy cache architectures. The analytical models use the run tim...
Evolvable Hardware (EHW) refers to HW design and self-reconfiguration using evolutionary/genetic mechanisms. The paper presents an overview of some key concepts of EHW, comments o...
