Timing optimizations during logic synthesis has become a necessary step to achieve timing closure in VLSI designs. This often involves “shortening” all paths found in the circ...
We present the key ideas in the design and implementation of Beaver, an SMT solver for quantifier-free finite-precision bit-vector logic (QF BV). Beaver uses an eager approach, enc...
A non-uniform cellular automata-based model is presented for the evolutionary development of digital circuits at the gate level. The main feature of this model is the modified lo...
Carbon Nanotube Field-Effect Transistors (CNFETs) show big promise as extensions to silicon-CMOS because: 1) Ideal CNFETs can provide significant energy and performance benefits o...

This paper presents a systematic design methodology for yield enhancement of asynchronous logic circuits using 3-D (3-Dimensional) integration technology. In this design, the targ...
