- We introduce a transformation, named rephasing, that manipulates the timing parameters in control-dataflow graphs. Traditionally high-level synthesis systems for DSP have either ...
Utility computing is becoming a popular way of exploiting the potential of computational grids. In utility computing, users are provided with computational power in a transparent ...
We propose the first systematic, sensor-centric approach for quantitative design of sensor network appliances. We demonstrate its use by designing light appliance devices and the ...
