MiniBit, our automated approach for optimizing bit-widths of fixed-point designs is based on static analysis via affine arithmetic. We describe methods to minimize both the intege...

— Test-access mechanisms (TAMs) and test wrappers (e.g., the IEEE Standard 1500 wrapper) facilitate the modular testing of embedded cores in a core-based system-on-chip (SOC). Su...
As the operating frequency increases to Giga Hertz and the rise time of a signal is less than or comparable to the time-of-flight delay of a line, it is necessary to consider the...
- Power gating is an efficient technique for reducing leakage power in electronic devices by disconnecting blocks idle for long periods of time from the power supply. Disconnecting...
Abstract— Design variability due to within-die and die-todie process variations has the potential to significantly reduce the maximum operating frequency and the effective yield...
