The use of Flash memories in portable embedded systems is ever increasing. This is because of the multi-level storage capability that makes them excellent candidates for high dens...
The discrepancy between integrated circuits' activities in normal functional mode and that in structural test mode has an increasing adverse impact on the effectiveness of ma...
Caches are notorious for their unpredictability. It is difficult or even impossible to predict if a memory access will result in a definite cache hit or miss. This unpredictabilit...
Energy consumption is of significant concern in battery operated embedded systems. In the processors of such systems, the instruction cache consumes a significant fraction of the ...
We are presenting a new concept of an application-specific processor that is capable of transmuting its instruction set according to non-predictive application behavior during run...
