A systematic approach to design system architectures with power, area and cost in mind

iPower is a method developed at imec/Holst Centre that enables power, area and cost optimization at architectural and application levels. With iPower you can make effective technology and components choices within the selected application domain. The method output is an optimum in power consumption, area and cost obtained within the application input specifications. The obtained information could be used to continuously steer the research and development cycle.
