The goal of a data integration system is to provide a uniform interface to a multitude of data sources. Given a user query formulated in this interface, the system translates it i...
Thermal effects are becoming increasingly important during integrated circuit design. Thermal characteristics influence reliability, power consumption, cooling costs, and performan...
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...
Information integration systems provide a uniform query interface to a set of sources. One of the key challenges for an information integration system is to provide maximally comp...
Shrinking process geometries and the increasing use of IP components in SoC designs give rise to new problems in routing and buffer insertion. A particular concern is that cross-c...
