In this paper we explore the use of a set of novel design metrics for characterizing the impact of gate oxide tunneling current in nanometer CMOS devices and perform Monte Carlo s...
— This paper investigates in detail the blocking and nonblocking behavior of multirate Clos switching networks at the connection/virtual connection level. The results are applica...
Abstract--Technology scaling in the nanometer era has increased the transistor's susceptibility to process variations. The effects of such variations are having a huge impact ...
