In this paper we present a new method of integrating the placement and routing stages in the physical design of channel-based architectures, and present the first implementation o...
In this paper we investigate the problem of code generation for address computation for DSP processors. This work is divided into four parts. First, we propose a branch instructio...
Test data volume and scan power are two major concerns in SoC test. In this paper we present an alternative run-length coding method through scan chain reconfiguration to reduce b...
We study the impact of backbones in optimization and approximation problems. We show that some optimization problems like graph coloring resemble decision problems, with problem h...
The typical difficulty of various NP-hard problems varies with simple parameters describing their structure. This behavior is largely independent of the search algorithm, but depe...
