In this work, we propose a new paradigm called power emulation, which exploits hardware acceleration to drastically speedup power estimation. Power emulation is based on the obser...
Abstract— Hierarchical design plays an important role in microprocessor and ASIC domains where design complexity limits design productivity and tool capacity. Slack distribution,...
Critical systems like pace-makers, defibrillators, wearable computers and other electronic gadgets have to be designed not only for reliability but also for ultra-low power consu...
Continued growth in chip capacity has led to new methodologies stressing reuse, not only of pre-designed processing components, but even of entire pre-designed architectures. To b...
The multiplication of a variable by multiple constants, i.e., the multiple constant multiplications (MCM), has been a central operation and performance bottleneck in many applicat...
