( SNUG 99 Item 39 ) ----------------------------------------------- [3/31/99]
"Zia Kahn (Intel) gave a Power Compiler presentation. One useful
idea was to measure the frequency of the nodes that toggle per clock
cycle. This is probably good for measuring the activity of a model
w.r.t. simulation speeds."
- Anon
"Lots of talk about Power Compiler and its ability to replace the
enable/disable of flip-flops with gated clocks. Real experiences
from users, what you need to do (i.e. you need a special cell in
the library). They reported power savings between 20% to 50%,
which is mouth watering."
- Oren Rubinstein of Gigapixel
"Power comes from the barrel of a gun."
- Mao Tse Tung, communist revolutionary, Chinese Emperor '49 - '76
