Coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures (CGRAs) have drawn increasing attention due
to their flexibility and energy efficiency. Data flow graphs (DFGs) are often mapped onto …

Human computation games (HCGs) are a crowdsourcing approach to solving
computationally-intractable tasks using games. We outline a formal representation of the …

The problem of mapping a data flow graph onto a reconfigurable architecture has been
difficult to solve quickly and optimally. Anytime algorithms have the potential to meet both …

In this paper, we study intrinsic vs. extrinsic mofivafion in players playing an electrical
engineering gaming environment. We used UNTANGLED, a highly interacfive game to …

In this study, we examine how the upper and lower level performers construct their
knowledge in an open-ended interactive challenging game-like design environment. The …

Stakeholders who directly affect requirements are rarely emphasized concretely in
requirement risk analysis. In this paper, we propose a stakeholder-focused requirement risk …

In this paper, we study the self-regulated learning aspect in an interactive open-ended game-
like design environment. We used the interactive game UNTANGLED to conduct this study …

One of the grand challenges in the design of portable/wearable electronics is to achieve
optimal efficiency and flexibility in a tiny low power package. Coarse grained reconfigurable …

Custom domain-specific architectures are very promising for creating designs that are highly
optimized to the needs of a particular application domain. However, it is extremely difficult to …

The precursor of any problem-solving strategy is the visualization of the problem at hand.
When dealing with problems pertaining to STEM (science, technology, engineering, and …
