Leading-edge systems-on-chip (SoC) being designed today could reach 20 Million gates and 0.5 to 1 GHz operating frequency. In order to implement such systems, designers are increa...
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...
Verification of system designs continues to be a major challenge today. Simulation remains the primary tool for making sure that implementations perform as they should. We present...
