CT This paper investigates the low power implementation issues of the soft-output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA), a building block for turbo codes. By briefly explaining the theory of t...
In this paper we present an input pattern independent method to compute the maximum current envelope, which is an upper bound over all possible current waveforms drawn by a circui...
Current reconfigurable systems suffer from a significant overhead due to the time it takes to reconfigure their hardware. In order to deal with this overhead, and increase the com...
The report issued by the Inquiry Board in charge of inspecting the Ariane 5 flight 501 failure concludes that causes of the failure are rooted into poor S/W Engineering practice. ...
Prefetching is one approach to reducing the latency of memory operations in modern computer systems. In this paper, we describe the Markov prefetcher. This prefetcher acts as an i...
