ACM Transactions on Design Automation of Electronic Systems

With the advances in the field of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT), these devices are increasingly used in daily life or industry. To reduce costs related to the time required to develop these devices, security features are usually ...

Cache coherence ensures correctness of cached data in multi-core processors. Traditional implementations of existing protocols make them unscalable for many core architectures. While snoopy coherence requires unscalable ordered networks, directory ...

Response Time Analysis (RTA) is an important and promising technique for analyzing the schedulability of real-time tasks under both Global Fixed-Priority (G-FP) scheduling and Global Earliest Deadline First (G-EDF) scheduling. Most existing RTA methods ...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have rapidly become popular for monitoring, delivery, and actuation in many application domains such as environmental management, disaster mitigation, homeland security, energy, transportation, and manufacturing. However, ...

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have been widely adopted in NAND flash in recent years to enhance data reliability. There are two types of decoding, hard-decision and soft-decision decoding. However, for the two types, their error correction ...

Since the memristor emerged as a programmable analog storage device, it has stimulated research on the design of analog/mixed-signal circuits with the memristor as the enabler of in-memory computation. Due to the difficulty in evaluating the circuit-level ...

Microfluidic lab-on-chips offer promising technology for the automation of various biochemical laboratory protocols on a minuscule chip. Sample preparation (SP) is an essential part of any biochemical experiments, which aims to produce dilution of a ...

Fault injection attack (FIA) has become a serious threat to the confidentiality and fault tolerance of integrated circuits (ICs). Circuit designers need an effective method to evaluate the countermeasures of the IC designs against the FIAs at the design ...

Brain network is a large-scale complex network with scale-free, small-world, and modularity properties, which largely supports this high-efficiency massive system. In this article, we propose to synthesize brain-network-inspired interconnections for large-...
