Abstract— Hierarchical design plays an important role in microprocessor and ASIC domains where design complexity limits design productivity and tool capacity. Slack distribution,...
A primary goal of high-level modeling is to efficiently explore a broad design space, converging on an optimal or near-optimal system architecture before moving to a more detaile...

There are already a huge number of problems for silicon designers and it is likely to just get worse. Many of these problems are technical associated with shrinking geometries and...
A new design of Psycho-Acoustic Model in MPEG-214 AAC encoding is proposed. Differing from the conventional PC-based and DSP-based encoders, it was based on hybrid architectures. ...
As microprocessors continue to evolve, many optimizations reach a point of diminishing returns. We introduce HLS, a hybrid processor simulator which uses statistical models and sy...
