The Translation Look-aside Buffer (TLB) is a very important part in the hardware support for virtual memory management implementation of high performance embedded systems. The TLB...
Many system-level design tasks (e.g. timing analysis, hardware/software partitioning and design space exploration) involve computational kernels that are intractable (usually NP-ha...
We present the automatic test pattern generator TIGUAN based on a thread-parallel SAT solver. Due to a tight integration of the SAT engine into the ATPG algorithm and a carefully ...

Partial Reconfiguration on heterogeneous Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) with millions of gates yields better utilization of resources by swapping in and out the active modu...
We analyze the neutron induced soft error rate (SER). An induced error pulse is modeled by two parameters, probability of occurrence and probability density function of the pulse ...
Code compression is important in embedded systems design since it reduces the code size (memory requirement) and thereby improves overall area, power and performance. Existing res...
Designing MOS decoupling capacitors (DECAPs) in nanotechnologies provides many challenges due to the existing trade-offs among transient time response behavior, area, and gate lea...
