Books in the Foundations and Trends (R) in Electronic Design Automation series

Reviews the major design methodologies that have had a profound effect on designing future Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures. More precisely, the book addresses the problem of NoC design in the deterministic context, where the application and the architecture are modelled as graphs with worst-case type of information.

Presents recently developed approaches in automotive control systems design that take implementation resources into consideration, aiming to improve the control performances for a given amount of resources, or equivalently, realize the required control performances with fewer resources.

Guides the reader through the state-of-the-art of wearable devices, detailing the challenges that researchers and designers face in achieving wide-adoption of the technology throughout society. The authors also identify the application areas where these devices are most likely to gain acceptance.
