Continuing trends in sensor, semiconductor and communication systems technology (smaller, faster, cheaper) make feasible very dense networks of fixed and mobile wireless devices ...
Power consumption has become an increasingly important constraint in high-performancecomputing systems, shifting the focus from peak performance towards improving power efficiency...
We designed and fabricated an 8-bit analog-to- LiSTOF ENERGY-SCAVENGER PERFORMANCE digital converter (ADC) in a 0.5,um Silicon-on-Sapphire CMOS technology. The ultra-low power and ...
Ideal power converters are governed by differential equations with discontinuous right-hand sides. General-purpose algorithms to compute their Lyapunov exponents assume smooth equ...
—We survey state-of-the-art optimization methods that target low power dissipation in VLSI circuits. Optimizations at the circuit, logic, architectural and system levels are cons...
