The concept of system-on-a-chip is becoming increasingly popular for the integration of complex systems. New types of processor cores are now available that enable the designer to...
Crosstalk effects degrade the integrity of signals traveling on long interconnects and must be addressed during manufacturing testing. External testing for crosstalk is expensive ...
Extensible processors, which allow customization for an application domain by extending the core instruction set architecture, are becoming increasingly popular for embedded syste...
Code size and energy consumption are critical design concerns for embedded processors as they determine the cost of the overall system. Techniques such as reduced length instructi...
