Accelerating RTL Simulation Through Fine-grained Task Dataflow and Selective Execution
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Fast simulation of digital circuits is crucial to build modern chips. Current processors and SoCs integrate hundreds of complex components, including cores, accelerators, and memory hierarchies. Simulating these systems ... -
Task Scheduling Techniques to Accelerate RTL Simulation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Fast simulation of digital circuits is crucial to build modern chips. Slow simulation lengthens chip design time and makes bugs more frequent. While simulation can happen at different levels of abstraction, Register-Transfer-Level ... -
Scheduling Strategies for Bus Operator Retention: A Mixed-Methods Evaluation of Bus Operator Preferences and 4-Day Workweek Feasibility
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)Public transit agencies face significant and growing challenges related to workforce shortages, absenteeism, and employee retention, which threaten service reliability. Reports found that 90% of U.S. transit agencies are ...
