This paper describes an integer-linear-programming (ILP)-based system called Custom Hardware Instruction Processor Synthesis (CHIPS) that identifies custom instructions for critica...
Abstract--A key design constraint of circuits used in handheld devices is the power consumption, mainly due to battery life limitations. Adaptive power management (APM) techniques ...

— Variability in the chip design process has been relatively increasing with technology scaling to smaller dimensions. Using worst case analysis for circuit optimization severely...
Many large-scale production parallel programs often run for a very long time and require data checkpoint periodically to save the state of the computation for program restart and/o...
