The interlock and forwarding logic is considered the tricky part of a fully-featured pipelined microprocessor and especially debugging these parts delays the hardware design proce...
Watermarking of hardware and software designs is an effective mechanism for intellectual property protection (IPP). Two important criteria for watermarking schemes are credibility...
Energy consumption has become an increasingly important consideration in designing many real-time embedded systems. Variable voltage processors, if used properly, can dramatically...
Wireless communications requires a new approach to implement the algorithms for new standards. The computational demands of these standards are outstripping the ability of traditi...
This paper describes the design of two half-rate clock and data recovery circuits for optical receivers. Targeting the data rate of 10-Gb/s, the rst implementation incorporates a ...
