—Hardware Intellectual Property (IP) cores have emerged as an integral part of modern System–on–Chip (SoC) designs. However, IP vendors are facing major challenges to protect...
Abstract. Evolvable Hardware (EHW) is a scheme - inspired by natural evolution, for automatic design of hardware systems. By exploring a large design search space, EHW may find so...
Abstract. In this article we elaborate on portability in componentbased operating systems, focusing in the hardware mediator construct proposed by Frhlich in the Application-Orient...
Progress in reconfigurable hardware technology allows the implementation of complete SoCs in today's FPGAs. In the context design for reliability, software checkpointing is a...
The paper surveys the fundamental principles of evolvable hardware, introduces main problems of the field and briefly describes the most successful applications. Although evolvab...
