In modern digital ICs, the increasing demand for performance and throughput requires operating frequencies of hundreds of megahertz, and in several cases exceeding the gigahertz r...
Circuit activity is a function of input patterns. When circuit activity changes abruptly, it can cause sudden drop or rise in power supply voltage. This change is known as power d...

The paper targets the applicability of model-driven methodologies to the validation of complex systems and presents a case study of a mobile radio network. Validation relies on the...
— Typical embedded hardware/software systems are implemented using a combination of C and an HDL such as Verilog. While each is well-behaved in isolation, combining the two gives...
—Workload characterisation and generation is becoming an increasingly important area as hardware and application complexities continue to advance. In this paper, we introduce a c...
