— Distributed applications require specific middleware support for semantics and run-time constraints for a wide range of hardware or software configurations. However, their fu...
Focusing on embedded applications, scratchpad memories (SPMs) look like a best-compromise solution when taking into account performance, energy consumption and die area. The main ...
The design of state-of-the-art, complex embedded systems requires the capability of modeling and simulating the complex networked environment in which such systems operate. This i...

The power consumption of a sequential circuit can be reduced by decomposing it into subcircuits which can be turned off when inactive. Power can also be reduced by careful state e...
Power dissipation is unevenly distributed in modern microprocessors leading to localized hot spots with significantly greater die temperature than surrounding cooler regions. Exc...
