Achieving high performance under a peak temperature limit is a first-order concern for VLSI designers. This paper presents a new model of a thermally-managed system, where a stoch...
Power-aware systems are those that must make the best use of available power. They subsume traditional low-power systems in that they must not only minimize power when the budget ...

The ability to do fine grain power management via local voltage selection has shown much promise via the use of Voltage/ Frequency Islands (VFIs). VFI-based designs combine the a...
NoCs present a possible communication infrastructure solution to deal with increased design complexity and shrinking time-to-market. The communication infrastructure is a signific...
