Abstract. Evolvable Hardware (EHW) is a scheme - inspired by natural evolution, for automatic design of hardware systems. By exploring a large design search space, EHW may find so...
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is emerging as a flexible technology that can transport voice, IPv4, IPv6, layer 2 services (Frame Relay, ATM, Ethernet, etc.), and even PDH an...
In this paper we present the results of a set of experiments we conducted in order to evaluate the viability of the behavioral synthesis, relying on the tools available at the mom...
