3-D monolithic integration (3DMI), also termed as sequential integration, is a potential technology for future gigascale circuits. Since the device layers are processed in sequent...
Abstract— Timing and low power emerge as the most important goals in contemporary design. Meanwhile, the majority of placement algorithms developed by industry and academia still...
An accurate model for pre-placement wire length estimation can be a useful tool during the physical design of integrated circuits. In this paper, an a priori wire length estimatio...
The ever increasing sizes of on-chip caches and the growing domination of wire delay necessitate significant changes to cache hierarchy design methodologies. Many recent proposal...
With the increasing size and sophistication of circuits and specifically in the presence of IP blocks, new wirelength estimation methods are needed in the design flow of large-sca...
