Modern processors and SoCs require the adoption of poweroriented design styles, due to the implications that power consumption may have on reliability, cost and manufacturability ...
—The dynamic programmable logic array (PLA) style has become popular in designing high-performance microprocessors because of its high speed and predictable routing delay. Howeve...
Abstract. It is shown that high-order feedforward neural nets of constant depth with piecewisepolynomial activation functions and arbitrary real weights can be simulated for Boolea...
