Non-Preemptive Interrupt Scheduling for Safe Reuse of Legacy Drivers in Real-Time Systems
Low-level support of peripheral devices is one of the most demanding activities in a real-time operating system. In fact, the rapid development of new interface boards causes a tr...

Architecture for Protecting Critical Secrets in Microprocessors
We propose “secret-protected (SP)” architecture to enable secure and convenient protection of critical secrets for a given user in an on-line environment. Keys are examples of...

Why area might reduce power in nanoscale CMOS
— In this paper we explore the relationship between power and area. By exploiting parallelism (and thus using more area) one can reduce the switching frequency allowing a reducti...

Transition time bounded low-power clock tree construction
— Recently power becomes a significant issue in clock network design for high-performance ICs because the clock network consumes a large portion of the total power in the whole s...

Improving WCET by Optimizing Worst-Case Paths
It is advantageous to perform compiler optimizations to lower the WCET of a task since tasks with lower WCETs are easier to schedule and more likely to meet their deadlines. Compi...
