In this paper we propose a high-level description of the behavior of digital systems. Behaviors are specified with a graphical synchronous model: “SyncCharts”. SyncCharts supp...
BLIF is a hardware description language designed for the hierarchical description of sequential circuits. We give a denotational semantics for BLIF-MV, a popular dialect of BLIF, t...

he significant increase in the available computational power that took place in recent decades has been accompanied by a growing interest in the application of the evolutionary ap...
System-on-chip (SOC) design methodology is becoming the trend in the IC industry. Integrating reusable cores from multiple sources is essential in SOC design, and different design...
The performance advantages in parallel ring-based VCOs are explored. When the number of VCOs is doubled, the parallel VCOs enhance phase noise by 3dB, and the within-chip process-...
