The memory subsystem accounts for a significant portion of the aggregate energy budget of contemporary embedded systems. Moreover, there exists a large potential for optimizing th...
This paper explores hardware-implemented error-detection and security mechanisms embedded as modules in a hardware-level framework called the Reliability and Security Engine (RSE)...

Certain hard real-time tasks demand precise timing of events, but the usual software solution of periodic interrupts driving a scheduler only provides precision in the millisecond ...
This paper is concerned with the application of formal optimisation methods to the design of mixed-granularity FPGAs. In particular, we investigate the appropriate mix and floorpl...
