This work describes a low-cost Public-Key Cryptography (PKC) based solution for security services such as key-distribution and authentication as required for wireless sensor networ...
We introduce the First Fit Matching Periods algorithm for rate-monotonic multiprocessor scheduling of periodic tasks with implicit deadlines and show that it yields asymptotically...
Nowadays many customised embedded processors offer the possibility of speeding up an application by implementing it using Application-Specific Functional units (AFUs). However, th...
Computational complexity has been the primary challenge of many VLSI CAD applications. The emerging multicore and manycore microprocessors have the potential to offer scalable perf...
As the end of Moores-law is on the horizon, power becomes a limiting factor to continuous increases in performance gains for single-core processors. Processor engineers have shifte...
