We address the problem of minimizing power consumption in behavioral synthesis of data-dominated circuits. The complex nature of power as a cost function implies that the effects ...
Hardware acceleration is crucial in modern embedded system design to meet the explosive demands on performance and cost. Selected computation kernels for acceleration are usually ...
The existence of non-uniform thermal gradients on the substrate in high performance IC’s can significantly impact the performance of global on-chip interconnects. This issue is...
Software programming languages, such as C/C++, have been used as means for specifying hardware for quite a while. Different design methodologies have exploited the advantages of f...
The market demand for portable multimedia applications has exploded in the recent years. Unfortunately, for such applications current compilers and software optimization methods o...
