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...
Classical content sharing applications like BitTorrent are not designed to run over wireless networks. When adapting them to these constrained networks, two main problems arise. On...
—The hot spot problem is a typical byproduct of the many-to-one traffic pattern that characterizes most wireless sensor networks: the nodes with the best channel to the sink are ...
A fundamental difference between ASICs and FPGAs is that wires in ASICs are designed such that it matches the requirements of a particular design. Wire parameters such as: length...
To truly exploit FPGAs for rapid turn-around development and prototyping, placement times must be reduced to seconds; latebound, reconfigurable computing applications may demand p...
