  • Simulator for optimizing performance and power of embedded multicore processors

    Creator:
    Goska, Benjamin J.
    Abstract:
    This work presents improvements to a multi-core performance/power simulator. The improvements which include updated power models, voltage scaling aware models, and an application specific benchmark, are done to increase the accuracy of power models under voltage and frequency scaling. Improvements to the simulator enable more accurate design space exploration for...

  • A nano-power wake-up circuit for RF energy harvesting wireless sensor networks

    Creator:
    Lindsley, Christopher J.
    Abstract:
    A fully integrated CMOS latched comparator is presented for use as a wake-up circuit that is attached to an RF energy harvester in a battery free wireless sensor network. The system consumes less than 36nA static current at 20°C and dissipates 2pJ of energy per conversion. The comparator comprises of...

  • TIMR : Time Interleaved Multi Rail

    Creator:
    Ruggeri, Thomas L.
    Abstract:
    This work presents a new energy saving technique for modern digital designs. We propose Time Interleaved Multi-Rail (TIMR) - a method for providing two dynamic supply rails to a circuit. This technique uses the first supply rail to mask the transition delay while changing the voltage of the second rail....

  • Side channel attack resistant elliptic curves cryptosystem on multi-cores for power efficiency

    Creator:
    Yoo, Jaewon
    Abstract:
    The Advent of multi-cores allows programs to be executed much faster than before. Cryptoalgorithms use long-bit words thus parallelizing these operations on multi-cores will achieve significant performance improvement. However, not all long-bit word operations in cryptosystems are suitable for parallel execution on multi-cores. In particular, long-bit words used in Elliptic...

  • Information foraging in debugging

    Creator:
    Lawrance, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Programmers spend a substantial fraction of their debugging time by navigating through source code, yet little is known about how programmers navigate. With the continuing growth in size and complexity of software, this fraction of time is likely to increase, which presents challenges to those seeking both to understand and...

  • Low-power high-resolution delta-sigma ADC design techniques

    Creator:
    Wang, Tao
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a low-power high-resolution delta-sigma ADC. Two new architectural design techniques are proposed to reduce the power dissipation of the ADC. Compared to the conventional active adder, the direct charge transfer (DCT) adder greatly saves power by keeping the feedback factor of the active adder unity. However, the...

  • Low power design techniques for analog-to-digital converters in submicron CMOS

    Creator:
    Musah, Tawfiq
    Abstract:
    Advances in process technologies have led to the development of low-power high speed digital signal processing blocks that occupy small areas. These advances are critical in the development of portable electronic devices with small feature size and long battery life. However, the design of analog and mixed-signal building blocks, especially...

  • Energy and area efficient techniques for data converters

    Creator:
    Venkatram, Hariprasath
    Abstract:
    Data converters are ubiquitous building blocks of a signal chain. The rapid increase in communication and connectivity devices presents new avenues for pushing the state of the art analog to digital converters. Techniques for improving resolution, bandwidth, linearity and bit-error rate, while reducing the power, energy and area is the...

  • Computing Resource Usage as a Factor of Student Success

    Creator:
    Moissinac, Béatrice
    Abstract:
    Learning Analytics and other branches of Educational Research such as Computing Education Research (CER) implicitly assume that students, especially college students, have no barriers to access learning platforms or software packages. This assumption may be attributed to such pervasive beliefs such as "everyone has a device", or "everyone can access...

  • Design techniques for VCO based digital sensor readout circuits

    Creator:
    Prabha, Praveen
    Abstract:
    Sensors find a variety of applications in portable electronics, automotive and biomedical solutions. The demand for low power and high dynamic range makes the design of digital sensor readout circuits quite challenging. Traditionally, these circuits are realized using amplifiers with passive feedback or precision analog comparators which are power hungry...
