Recorded adjustments
Problem Example (before) Example (after) Justification
Unnecessary use of "the" "The rapid growth of the software size" "The rapid growth of software size" Definite article "the" is not needed before "software"
Removed "a" in front of "hardware" "... on top of a dedicated hardware" "... on top of dedicated hardware" Hardware is an uncountable noun (such as "gold"). So you may not use indefinite articles "a/an" with it.
Replaced comma use with semicolon "A timing ... tool, therefore, must be ... and uncertainties, otherwise, it ... becomes useless in practice" "A timing ... tool, therefore, must be ... and uncertainties; otherwise, it ... becomes useless in practice" Used a semicolon to separate independent clauses (complete ideas) for better readability instead of comma
Introduced "the" and "a" when needed "Finding periodicity of signal ..." "Finding the periodicity of a signal ..." Required addition of definite and indefinite articles
Simplified phrasing "Provides insightful discussion ..." "Provides insight ..." Opinion
