—Reducing energy consumption is an important issue for battery powered embedded computing systems. Content Addressable Memory (CAM)-based Highly-Associative Caches (HAC) are wide...
Abstract— This paper proposes the opportunistic power allocation (OPA) scheme for random beamforming with a limited feedback rate. Without the channel state information, the prop...
The power consumption of mixed-signal systems featured by an analog front-end, a digital back-end, and with signal processing tasks that can be computed with multiplications and a...
This paper considers the testability implications of low power design methodologies. Low power and high testability are shown to be highly contrasting requirements, and an optimiz...
