Formal verification methods are used only sparingly in software development. The most successful methods to date are based on the use of model checking tools. To use such he user ...
In this paper we present a new fanout optimization algorithm which is particularly suitable for digital circuits designed with submicron CMOS technologies. Restricting the class o...
All systems, regardless of how carefully they have been constructed, suffer failures. This paper focuses on developing a formal understanding of failure with respect to system imp...
In this paper we present a power dissipation model considering the charging/discharging of capacitance at the gate output node as well as internal nodes, and capacitance feedthrou...
In order to accommodate the spectrum of configuration options currently required for competitive system infrastructures, many systems leverage heavy usage of C preprocessor contro...
