Choosing the right methodology is a significant step towards successful VLSI designs. Traditional methodologies and tools are no longer adequate to handle large and complex design...
Advances in semiconductor process and design technology enable the design of complex system chips. Traditional IC design, in which every circuit is designed from scratch and reuse...
We apply Amdahl's Law to multicore chips using symmetric cores, asymmetric cores, and dynamic techniques that allows cores to work together on sequential execution. To Amdahl...
Multicore platforms, which include several processing cores on a single chip, are being widely touted as a solution to heat and energy problems that are impediments to single-core...
Emerging embedded System-on-Chip (SoC) platforms are increasingly becoming multiprocessor architectures. The advances in the FPGA chip technology make the implementation of such a...
