Energy parsimonious circuit design through probabilistic pruning
TL;DR: This paper presents a novel design-level technique called probabilistic pruning to realize inexact circuits using pruning of portions of circuits having a lower probability of being active, as the basis for performing architectural modifications resulting in significant savings in energy, delay and area.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Algorithmic methodologies for ultra-efficient inexact architectures for sustaining technology scaling
Avinash Lingamneni,Kirthi Krishna Muntimadugu,Christian Enz,Richard M. Karp,Krishna V. Palem,Christian Piguet +5 more
TL;DR: An algorithmically well-founded cross-layer co-design framework (CCF) for automatically designing inexact hardware in the form of datapath elements and shows that significant associated gains can be achieved in terms of energy, area, and delay or speed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesizing Parsimonious Inexact Circuits through Probabilistic Design Techniques
TL;DR: Two novel design approaches called Probabilistic Pruning and Probabilism Logic Minimization are proposed to realize inexact circuits with zero hardware overhead and can independently achieve normalized gains as large as 2x--9.5x in energy-delay-area product for relative error magnitude as low as 10 − 4%--8% compared to corresponding conventional correct circuits.
BookDOI
Design Technology for Heterogeneous Embedded Systems
TL;DR: Heterogeneous Embedded Systems proposes a necessarily broad and holistic overview of design techniques used to tackle the various facets of heterogeneity in terms of technology and opportunities at the physical level, signal representations and different abstraction levels, architectures and components based on hardware and software.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Extremely low-power logic
TL;DR: For extremely Low-power Logic, three very new and promising techniques will be described, methods on circuit and system level for reduced supply voltages, and Nano-devices will also be presented, as a possibility to compute with nearly zero power, and compared to future 10 nanometers transistors.
