Generation of Hardware/Software Systems Based on CAL Dataflow Description

Marco Mattavelli, Romuald Mosqueron, Richard Thavot, Julien Dubois

This chapter presents a new development of rapid prototyping tools for system design based on data-flow specifications. In this context, the efficiency of tools for the automatic translation from the data-flow programs to C and/or HDL are assessed by means ...

On the benefits of vector network coding

Christina Fragouli, Javad Ebrahimi Boroojeni

In vector network coding, the source multi- casts information by transmitting vectors of length L, while intermediate nodes process and combine their incoming packets by multiplying them with L × L coding matrices that play a similar role as coding coeffic ...

Hicksian Welfare Measures and the Normative Endowment Effect

Thomas Alois Weber

We show that the Hicksian welfare measures of compensating variation and equivalent variation coincide if one of them is evaluated at a compensated income. The measures are nondecreasing in income if the varied attribute and income are complementary, and i ...

Algorithm/Architecture Co-Exploration of Visual Computing: Overview and Future Perspectives

Marco Mattavelli

Concurrently exploring both algorithmic and architectural optimizations is a new design paradigm. This survey paper addresses the latest research and future perspectives on the simultaneous development of video coding, processing, and computing algorithms ...

Contextual Modulation and Gestalt

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim

The perception of a stimulus can strongly be modified by its spatial context. For example, when a vernier stimulus is flanked by two lines, performance deteriorates compared to a vernier without flanks. This is usually explained by local interactions, such ...

Model-Based Debugging

Salman Mirghasemi

Software Debugging is still one of the most challenging and time consuming aspects of software development. Monitoring the software behavior and finding the causes of this behavior are located at the center of debugging process. Although many tools and tec ...

Iterative Demosaicking Accelerated: Theory and Fast Noniterative Implementations

Martin Vetterli, Yue Lu, Mina Karzand

Color image demosaicking is a key process in the digital imaging pipeline. In this paper, we present a rigorous treatment of a classical demosaicking algorithm based on alternating projections (AP). Since its publication, the AP algorithm has been widely c ...

A co-design platform for Algorithm/Architecture design exploration

Marco Mattavelli, Christophe Lucarz, Julien Dubois

The efﬁcient implementation of multimedia algorithms, for the ever increasing complexity of the speciﬁcations and the emergence of the new generation of processing platforms characterized by multicore and multicomponent parallel architectures, requires app ...

Flexible hardware acceleration for instruction-grain program monitoring

Babak Falsafi, Evangelos Vlachos

Instruction-grain program monitoring tools, which check and analyze executing programs at the granularity of individual instructions, are invaluable for quickly detecting bugs and security attacks and then limiting their damage (via containment and/or reco ...

On the Complexity of Asynchronous Gossip

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

In this paper, we study the complexity of gossip in an asynchronous, message-passing fault-prone distributed system. In short, we show that an adaptive adversary can significantly hamper the spreading of a rumor, while an oblivious adversary cannot. In the ...
