Component-based software development would allow application software be largely constructed, rather than programmed. This approach would dramatically improve the productivity of ...
This paper presents a logic synthesis tool called BETSY (BIST Environment Testable Synthesis) for synthesizing circuits that achieve complete (100%)fault coverage in a user specif...
This paper evaluates several mechanisms for repairing the return-address stack after branch mispredictions. The return-address stack is a small but important structure for achievi...
