The number and magnitude of process variation sources are increasing as we scale further into the nano regime. Today's most successful response surface methods limit us to lo...
In this paper we present a statistical method for estimating the maximum power consumption in VLSI circuits. The method is based on the theory of extreme order statistics applied ...
Software synthesis from a concurrent functional specification is a key problem in the design of embedded systems. A concurrent specification is well-suited for medium-grained part...
Current technology trends have led to the growing impact of both inter-die and intra-die process variations on circuit performance. While it is imperative to model parameter varia...
Despite popular belief, boosting algorithms and related coordinate descent methods are prone to overfitting. We derive modifications to AdaBoost and related gradient-based coordin...
