As VLSI fabrication technology progresses to 65nm feature sizes and smaller, transistors no longer operate as ideal switches. This motivates verifying digital circuits using contin...
With increasingly smaller feature sizes and higher on-chip densities, the power dissipation of VLSI systems has become a primary concern for designers. This paper first describes...
In performance-driven interconnect design, delay estimators are used to determine both the topology and the layout of good routing trees. We address the class of moment-matching, ...
Based on the insertion of internal and external redundant wires into L-type and U-type wires, an efficient two-phase reliability-driven insertion algorithm is proposed to insert r...
Nanoscale crossbars built from nanowires can form high density memories and programmable logic devices. To integrate such nanoscale devices with other circuits, nanowire decoders ...
