The power of sequential design optimizations

Energy (or, more specifically, energy consumption) is at the forefront in everyone's mind these days. Whether we are sensitive to the cost of fuel, to the electricity bill or to a dead cell phone ...

Sequential equivalence checking for RTL models

In this paper, we examine the need for formal sequential equivalence checking across pairs of RTL models. We present scenarios that call for modifying the sequential behavior of RTL models while ...

Active learning for optimal intervention design in causal models

Sequential experimental design to discover interventions that achieve a desired outcome is a key problem in various domains including science, engineering and public policy. When the space of possible ...

Reduce Power in Chip Designs with Sequential Clock Gating

Clock gating is one of the most frequently used techniques in RTL to reduce dynamic power consumption without affecting the functionality of the design. One method involves inserting gating conditions ...

Soft robot design methodology for ‘push-button’ manufacturing

‘Push-button’ or fully automated manufacturing would enable the production of robots with zero intervention from human hands. Realizing this utopia requires a fundamental shift from a sequential ...
