Investigator: Professor R K Shyamasundar, Fellow IEEE, Funding: SABA-UPR $20K / year
University: Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai, 2000-2004
Summary: Developed new paradigm called Multiclock Esterel providing unified framework for design of
synchronous and asynchronous reactive distributed embedded systems. Led to modular specification of
asynchronous systems with multiple clocks. Preserved advantages of verifiability (with tool support) of
synchronous reactive systems and also provided formal semantic model for reactive/real -time features of
VHDL/VERILOG.
Discussed practical case study for FPGA program. Guided student Kalyanasundaram invited presentation in

Investigator: Prof. C.P. Ravikumar, Funding: SABA-UPR $20K / year
University: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi,1999-2001
Summary: Analytical HCFG approach developed supports design process features such as hierarchy, concurrency
and stochastic nature of task completion times. Provided efficient computation methodol ogy for probability
distribution function of process completion time and for deriving useful statistics: expected completion time, lower
and upper bounds and chances of completion of design process within certain duration. Efficiency and versatility
of new approach was demonstrated by applying it to several design flows for different methodologies /
applications: (1) ASIC design, (2) Petrinet based representation, (3) MCM based systems with manufacturability
considerations, (4) hardware-software co-design flow for single chip implementation of wireless mobile
transceiver, and (5) software design flow for application specific instruction set processor/DSP.
