Portable electronics has fueled the rich emergence of multimedia applications that have led to the exponential growth in content creation and consumption. New energy-efficient integrated circuits and systems are necessary to enable the increasingly complex augmented-reality applications, such as high-performance multimedia, “big-data” processing and smart healthcare, in real-time on mobile platforms of the future. This work explores an energy-efficient system design approach with algorithm, architecture and circuit co-design for multiple application areas.
