  text: In this paper we present a combined hardware/software approach for synchronizing
    the sampling clocks of an acoustic sensor network. A first clock frequency offset
    estimate is obtained by a time stamp exchange protocol with a low data rate and
    computational requirements. The estimate is then postprocessed by a Kalman filter
    which exploits the specific properties of the statistics of the frequency offset
    estimation error. In long term experiments the deviation between the sampling
    oscillators of two sensor nodes never exceeded half a sample with a wired and
    with a wireless link between the nodes. The achieved precision enables the estimation
    of time difference of arrival values across different hardware devices without
    sharing a common sampling hardware.

  text: Faced with increasing demands on energy efficiency, current electronic systems
    operate according to complex power management schemes including more and more
    fine-grained voltage frequency scaling and power shutdown scenarios. Consequently,
    validation of the power design intent should begin as early as possible at electronic
    system-level (ESL) together with first executable system specifications for integrity
    tests. However, today's system-level design methodologies usually focus on the
    abstraction of digital logic and time, so that typical low-power aspects cannot
    be considered so far. In this paper, we present a high-level modeling approach
    on top of the SystemC/TLM standard to simulate power distribution and voltage
    based implications in a "loosely-timed" functional execution context. The approach
    reuses legacy TLM models and prevents the need for detailed lock-step process
    synchronization in contrast to existing methods. A case study derived from an
    open source low-power design demonstrates the efficiency of our approach in terms
    of simulation performance and testability.
