Reactive systems are often described by interconnecting sub-components along architectural connectors defining communication policies. Generally, such global systems may exhibit p...
We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a "star" operator takes closure under vector addition of the solution set of a linear arithmetic subformula. We...
This paper proposes a low power technique, called SBR (Sign Bit Reduction) which may reduce the switching activity in multipliers as well as data buses. Utilizing the multipliers ...
