A new split accumulator architecture to be used in direct digital frequency synthesizers (DDFS) systems is presented. This new design eliminates the need of adders on the section ...
Timing exception verification has become a center of interest as incorrect constraints can lead to chip failures. Proving that a false path is valid or not is a difficult problem ...
Custom design, in which the designer controls the physical structure of the chip, can greatly improve the speed, power, and delay of an ASIC chip without affecting design time. Th...
Given that most elementary problems in database design are NP-hard, the currently used database design algorithms produce suboptimal results. For example, the current 3NF decompos...
Operating frequency of a pipelined circuit is determined by the delay of the slowest pipeline stage. However, under statistical delay variation in sub-100nm technology regime, the...
