Two-step power conversion: Portable power for the future 1999-04-08
As microprocessor operating voltages continue to decrease, power conversion for CPU core power is becoming a daunting challenge. A core power supply must have fast transient response, good efficiency, and low heat generation in the vicinity of the processor. These factors will soon force a move away from one-step power conversion from battery or wall adapter to processor, to two-step conversion where the CPU core power is obtained from the 5V supply. This paper discusses about the two-step power conversion  
Save power with omniscient code generation 2008-06-02
In lowering power consumption, it is important to minimize the number of instructions a CPU must execute to get the job done, so it can spend as much time as possible in the deepest sleep mode available. This is best accomplished by using a compiler with omniscient code generation technology

Long road ahead for analog synthesis 2000-05-01
It may be a bit like asking why can't women be more like men, but the question, "Why can't analog be more like digital?" is the most common complaint among engineers attempting to use analog design tools. Synthesis (the automatic generation of physical circuitry from a high-level language description) is one area where analog design departs drastically from digital.
