Abstract :
This paper contains a tutorial on bus-encoding techniques that target low power dissipation. Three general classes of codes, i.e., algebraic, permutation-based, and probability-based, are reviewed. A new mathematical framework for unifying the power-aware algebraic coding techniques based on the notion of leader sets is also presented
