Profiling an application executing on a microprocessor is part of the solution to numerous software and hardware optimization and design automation problems. Most current profilin...
As power consumption of the clock tree in modern VLSI designs tends to dominate, measures must be taken to keep it under control. This paper introduces an approach for reducing cl...
Functional verification is widely acknowledged as the bottleneck in the hardware design cycle. This paper addresses one of the main challenges of simulation based verification (or...
Bounded Model Checking (BMC) relies on solving a sequence of highly correlated Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problems, each of which corresponds to the existence of counter-example...
