UPPAAL PORT is a new tool for component-based design and analysis of embedded systems. It operates on the hierarchically structured continuous time component modeling language Save...
Active decoupling capacitors (decaps) are more effective than passive decaps at reducing local IR-drop problems in the power distribution network. In the basic active decap, two p...
The hardware complexity of digital filters is not controllable by straightforwardly rounding the coefficients to the quantization levels. In this paper, we propose an effective al...
This paper presents a transistor optimization methodology for low-power analog integrated CMOS circuits, relying on the physics-based gm/ID characteristics as a design optimizatio...
