The number and magnitude of process variation sources are increasing as we scale further into the nano regime. Today's most successful response surface methods limit us to lo...
Contemporary microprocessors implement many iterative algorithms. For example, the front-end of a microprocessor repeatedly fetches and decodes instructions while updating interna...

One of the primary challenges in embedded system design is designing the memory hierarchy and restructuring the application to take advantage of it. This task is particularly impo...
We address the problem of estimating controller delay from high-level specifications during behavioral synthesis. Typically, the critical path of a synthesised behavioral design g...
