The Esprit/OMI-COSY project defines transaction-levels to set-up the exchange of IP's in separating function from architecture and body-behavior from proprietary interfaces. ...
We revisit a basic element of modern signal integrity analysis, the modeling of worst-case coupling capacitance effects within a switch factor (SF) based methodology. We show that...
We have developed a function-level power estimation methodology for predicting the power dissipation of embedded software. For a given microprocessor core, we empirically build th...
