Integrated Circuit and System Design: Power and Timing Modeling, Optimization and Simulation: 19th International Workshop, PATMOS 2009, Delft, The ... Computer Science and General Issues) - Tapa blanda

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of 19th International Workshop on Power and Timing Modeling, Optimization and Simulation, PATMOS 2009, featuring Integrated Circuit and System Design, held in Delft, The Netherlands during September 9-11, 2009. The 26 revised full papers and 10 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on variability & statistical timing, circuit level techniques, power management, low power circuits & technology, system level techniques, power & timing optimization techniques, self-timed circuits, low power circuit analysis & optimization, and low power design studies.

Welcome to the proceedings of the 19th International Workshop on Power and TimingModeling,OptimizationandSimulation,PATMOS2009.Overtheyears, PATMOShasevolvedintoanimportantEuropeanevent,whereresearchersfrom both industry and academia discuss and investigate the emerging challenges in future and contemporary applications, design methodologies, and tools required for the development of the upcoming generations of integrated circuits and s- tems. PATMOS 2009 was organized by TU Delft, The Netherlands, with sp- sorship by the NIRICT Design Lab and Cadence Design Systems, and technical co-sponsorshipbytheIEEE.Furtherinformationabouttheworkshopisavailable athttp://ens.ewi.tudelft.nl/patmos09. The technical programof PATMOS 2009 contained state-of-the-arttechnical contributions, three invited keynotes, and a special session on SystemC-AMS Extensions. The technical program focused on timing, performance, and power consumption, as well as architectural aspects with particular emphasis on m- eling, design, characterization, analysis, and optimization in the nanometer era. The Technical Program Committee, with the assistance of additional expert reviewers, selected the 36 papers presented at PATMOS. The papers were - ganized into 7 oral sessions (with a total of 26 papers) and 2 poster sessions (with a total of 10 papers). As is customary for the PATMOS workshops, full papers were required for review, and a minimum of three reviews were received per manuscript.
