Abstract: Disclosed are a timing estimation method and a simulator. The method is applied to a function verification model. In the method, the model issues a first access issue at a first time point; receives a first response to the first access issue from the bus at a second time point; calculates a delay time between the first and second time points; determines whether the delay time is longer than or substantially equal to a transmission time corresponding to the first access issue; issues a second access issue if yes; and issues the second access issue in a compensation time counting from the second time point if not. The compensation time is not longer than the difference between the transmission time and the delay time.

Abstract: A hardware-aware zero-cost neural network architecture search system is configured to perform the following. A neural network search space is divided into multiple search blocks. Each of the search blocks includes multiple candidate blocks. The candidate blocks are guided and scored through a latent pattern generator. The candidate blocks in each of the search blocks are scored through a zero-cost accuracy proxy. One of the candidate blocks included in each of the search blocks is sequentially selected as selected candidate blocks, the selected candidate blocks are combined into multiple neural networks to be evaluated, and network potential of the neural networks to be evaluated is calculated according to scores of the selected candidate blocks. One neural network to be evaluated with the highest network potential is selected to determine the corresponding selected candidate blocks.

Abstract: A memory transaction-level modeling method and a memory transaction-level modeling system are provided. The memory transaction-level modeling method is used for simulating the operation of outputting at least one command to the memory. The memory includes a plurality of banks each of which corresponds with a bank status table. The memory transaction-level modeling method includes the following steps: An event is received. Whether one of the bank status tables is needed to be updated is determined. If one of the bank status tables is needed to be updated, this bank status table is recovered according to a TMP queue. A command is outputted to the memory according to a command queue. The outputted command is stored in the TMP queue. Some of the bank status tables are updated and others of the bank status tables are kept unchanged.

Abstract: A processing element architecture adapted to a convolution comprises a plurality of processing elements and a delayed queue circuit. The plurality of processing elements includes a first processing element and a second processing element, wherein the first processing element and the second processing element perform the convolution according to a shared datum at least. The delayed queue circuit connects to the first processing element and connects to the second processing element. The delayed queue circuit receives the shared datum sent by the first processing element, and sends the shared datum to the second processing element after receiving the shared datum and waiting for a time interval.

Abstract: An embodiment of a thermal estimation device including a temperature model generator, a temperature gradient calculator, and a thermal sensing analyzer is disclosed. The temperature model generator generates a temperature model based on an initial power consumption, an initial area and an initial coordination of a circuit module. The temperature gradient calculator substitutes at least one of a testing area, a testing power or a testing coordinate of the circuit module into the temperature model for correspondingly estimating an temperature estimation function. The thermal sensing analyzer differentiates the temperature estimation function. When an absolute value of a differential result of the temperature estimation function resulted from a constant is closest to zero or is zero, outputting the constant as an optimized parameter.
