A wider objective is used to find novel solutions to design such complex architectures so that system functionality and performance may not be compromised. Design automation using reconfigurable hardware and evolutionary algorithms (EA), such as genetic algorithm (GA), is one of the methods to tackle this issue. This concept applies the notion of Evolvable Hardware (EHW) to the problem domain such as novel design solutions and circuit optimization. EHW is a new field about the use of EA to synthesize a circuit. EA manipulates a population of individuals where each individual describes how to construct a candidate for a good circuit. Each circuit is assigned a fitness, which indicates how well a candidate satisfies the design specification. EA uses stochastic operators repeatedly to evolve new circuit configurations from existing ones, and a resultant circuit configuration will exhibit a desirable behavior. In this paper, optimum circuit design by using GA with fitness function composed of circuit complexity, power and time delay is proposed, and its effectiveness is shown by simulations.","PeriodicalId":405078,"journal":{"name":"2008 International SoC Design Conference","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115799798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional dual Vth design with the worst corner model becomes difficult to achieve for low leakage because delay variation of high Vth cell is increased significantly by Vth variation. In this paper, we demonstrated that a power gated cell is more tolerant in delay variation than high Vth cell in 45 nm technology. We propose hybrid design technique to use power gated cells in the dual Vth circuit to reduce standby leakage without causing performance degradation. Also, we developed an optimization methodology based on simulated annealing. The proposed technique was applied to ISCAS'85 benchmark circuits. Standby leakage power was reduced by 44% on average over the conventional dual Vth design.","PeriodicalId":405078,"journal":{"name":"2008 International SoC Design Conference","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133074085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the L0-cache is small, if there is a hit, the energy consumption will be reduced. On the other hand, if there is a miss, one extra cycle is required to access the L1-cache. This leads to a degradation of the processor performance. For resolving this problem, a single cycle accessible two-level cache (STC) architecture is proposed in this paper. This architecture makes it possible to access to both the L0 and the L1 caches from an MPU core in a cycle. Experiments using several benchmark programs demonstrate that the STC architecture reduces the energy consumption of memory subsystems by 13% without any performance degradation compared to the best results obtained by previous approaches.","PeriodicalId":405078,"journal":{"name":"2008 International SoC Design Conference","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123336133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The various solutions are analyzed in light of an impact of ever increasing VT variation (sigmaVT) on the required area overhead for each design solution, resulting in slowdown in the scaling pace. It has been found that 6 T will be allowed long reign even in 15 nm, if sigmaVT increasing pace is optimistically assumed, which sigmaVT can be suppressed to <70 mV even at 15 nm, thanks to EOT scaling for LSTP process, otherwise 10 T and 8 T with read modify write will be needed.","PeriodicalId":405078,"journal":{"name":"2008 International SoC Design Conference","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125181664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper uses a matching algorithm for the exact fault diagnosis. But the time consumption of a fault diagnosis using the matching algorithm is huge. So, we present a new method to reduce the fault diagnosis time. The method to reduce the time consumption is separated into two different phases which are a pattern comparison and a back-tracing comparison in failing pattern. The proposed method reduces fault candidates by comparing failing patterns with good patterns during critical path tracing process and comparing back-tracing from non-erroneous POs with back-tracing erroneous POs. The proposed method increases the simulation speed than the conventional algorithms. And this method is also applicable to any other fault diagnosis algorithms. Experimental results on ISCAS'85 and ISCAS'89 benchmark circuits show that fault candidate lists are reduced than those of previous diagnosis methods.","PeriodicalId":405078,"journal":{"name":"2008 International SoC Design Conference","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115013674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, we can reduce the area of comparators and digital back-end.
