1 Soft errors induced by radiation are an increasing problem in the microelectronic field. Although traditional models estimate the reliability of memories suffering Single Event U...
Asynchronous circuits are increasingly attractive as low power or high-performance replacements to synchronous designs. A key part of these circuits are asynchronous micropipeline...
We discover significant value-dependent programming energy variations in multi-level cell (MLC) flash memories, and introduce an energy-aware data compression method that minimize...
Adaptation in embedded processing is key in order to address efficiency. The concept of extensible embedded processors works well if a few a-priori known hot spots exist. However,...
We present a methodology for microarchitectural customization of embedded processors by exploiting application information, thus attaining the twin benefits of processor standardi...
