During the course of a program’s execution, a processor performs many trivial computations; that is, computations that can be simplified or where the result is zero, one, or equ...
This paper describes an experiment which aims to reveal the potential impact on performance yielded by augmenting a TriMedia-CPU64 processor with a multiple-context FPGA core. We ...

Abstract—Interconnects (wires, buffers, clock distribution networks, multiplexers and busses) consume a significant fraction of total circuit power. In this work, we demonstrat...
Existing 3D placement techniques are mainly used for standardcell circuits, while mixed-size placement is needed to support highlevel functional units and intellectual property (I...
Especially in the past few years, there has been an increase in the rejection rate of interactive consumer electronics products in the field, not due to broken hardware or softwar...
