— Embedded processors are required to achieve high performance while running on batteries. Thus, they must exploit all the possible means available to reduce energy consumption w...
In Deep Sub-Micron (DSM) technologies, interconnects play a crucial role in the correct functionality and largely impact the performance of complex System-on-Chip (SoC) designs. F...
In this paper we present NoCEE, a fast and accurate method for extracting energy models for packet-switched Network on Chip (NoC) routers. Linear regression is used to model the r...
In the context of physical synthesis, large-scale standard-cell placement algorithms must facilitate incremental changes to layout, both local and global. In particular, flexible...
Transient Signal Analysis (TSA) is a parametric device testing technique based on the analysis of dynamic (transient) current (iDDT) drawn by the core logic from the power supply ...
