This paper presents a modular optimization framework for custom digital circuits in the power – performance space. The method uses a static timer and a nonlinear optimizer to max...
Evolvable Hardware (EHW) refers to HW design and selfreconfiguration using evolutionary/genetic mechanisms. The paper presents an overview of some key concepts of EHW, describing ...
