Power estimation is an important issue in digital VLSI circuit design. The estimation of average power dissipation of a circuit through exhaustive simulation is impractical due to the large number of primary inputs and their combinations. In this paper, two algorithms based on least square estimation are proposed for determining the average power dissipation in CMOS circuits. Least square estim...

We consider a stochastic model for distributed average consensus, which arises in applications such as load balancing for parallel processors, distributed coordination of mobile autonomous agents, and network synchronization. In this model, each node updates its local variable with a weighted average of its neighbors’ values, and each new value is corrupted by an additive noise with zero mean. ...

The estimation of average-power dissipation of a circuit through exhaustive simulation is impractical due to the large number of primary inputs and their combinations. In this brief, two algorithms based on least square estimation are proposed for determining the average power dissipation in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) circuits. Least square estimation converges faster by att...
