摘要： A method for performing high-level synthesis (HLS) of a digital design includes a first phase for performing transformations on a behavioral description of the design, and a second phase for selecting a transformation from a plurality of transformations for transforming the behavioral description. The method further includes a third phase for implementing the transformed behavioral description using lower level primitives, and a fourth phase for generating implementation codes for the design.

摘要： Homogenous dual-rail logic for DPA attack resistive secure circuit design is disclosed. According to one embodiment, an HDRL circuit comprises a primary cell and a complementary cell, wherein the complementary cell is an identical duplicate of the primary cell. The HURL circuit comprises a first set of inputs and a second set of inputs, wherein the second set of inputs are a negation of the first set of inputs. The HURL circuit has a differential power at a level that is resistive to DPA attacks.

摘要： A computer system simulation method starts with algorithmically implementing a specification model independently of hardware architecture. High level functional blocks representing hardware components are connected together using a bus architecture-independent generic channel. The bus architecture-independent generic channel is annotated with timing and protocol details to define an interface between the bus architecture-independent generic channel and functional blocks representing hardware components. The interface is refined to obtain a CCATB for communication space. The read( ) and write( ) interface calls are decomposed into several method calls which correspond to bus pins to obtain observable cycle accuracy for system debugging and validation and to obtain a cycle accurate model. The method calls are replaced by signals, and the functional blocks representing hardware components are further refined to obtain pin/cycle-accurate models which can be manually or automatically mapped to RTL, or be used to co-simulate with existing RTL components.

摘要： Methods for simulating an instruction set architecture (ISA) with a instruction set simulator (ISS) are provided. One exemplary embodiment of the methods includes fetching a first decoded instruction during a run time, where the decoded instruction is decoded from an original instruction in a target application program during a compile time preceding the run time. The decoded instruction can designate a template configured to implement the functionality of the original instruction. The method also preferably includes determining whether the fetched instruction is modified from the original instruction and then executing the designated template if the instruction was not modified. The method can also include decoding the original instruction during the compile time by selecting a template corresponding to the original instruction and then customizing the template based on the data in original instruction. The method can also include optimizing the customized template during the compile time.

摘要： Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs) can be used effectively to accelerate the performance of embedded processors. The critical, and difficult task of ISE selection is often performed manually by designers. A few automatic methods for ISE generation have shown good capabilities, but are still limited in the handling of memory accesses, and so they fail to directly address the memory wall problem.We present here the first ISE identification technique that can automatically identify state-holding Application-specific Functional Units (AFUs) comprehensively, thus being able to eliminate a large portion of memory traffic from cache and main memory. Our cycle-accurate results obtained by the SimpleScalar simulator show that the identified AFUs with architecturally visible storage gain significantly more than previous techniques, and achieve an average speedup of 2.8× over pure software execution. Moreover, the number of required memory-access instructions is reduced by two thirds on average, suggesting corresponding benefits on energy consumption.
