Application profiling ? the process of monitoring an application to determine the frequency of execution within specific regions ? is an essential step within the design process f...
Ever-growing complexity is forcing design to move above RTL. For example, golden functional models are being written as clearly as possible in software and not optimized or intend...
Processor architects have a challenging task of evaluating a large design space consisting of several interacting parameters and optimizations. In order to assist architects in ma...

Our objective was to determine the most energy efficient 64b static CMOS adder architecture, for a range of high-performance delay targets. We examine extensively carry-lookahead ...
Clock network power in field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) is considered and two complementary approaches for clock power reduction in the Xilinx R VirtexTM -5 FPGA are presen...
