In the field of chip design, hardware module reuse is a standard solution to the increasing complexity of chip architecture and the pressures to reduce time to market. In the abs...
In this paper we present a novel adder/subtracter arithmetic unit that combines Binary and Binary Code Decimal (BCD) operations. The proposed unit uses effective addition/subtract...

Unlike their hard realtime counterparts, soft realtime applications are only expected to guarantee their ”expected delay” over input data space. This paradigm shift calls for ...
Intellectual property IP blocks are being created for reuse and marketed as a means of reducing the development time of complex designs. This in turn leads to a reduction in time ...

Elmore delay has been widely used as an analytical estimate of interconnect delays in the performance-driven synthesis and layout of VLSI routing topologies. However,for typical R...
