— We present a method for fast analysis of signal and power integrity based on a recently developed multilayered finite difference method (M-FDM). In order to accurately model m...
The continuing VLSI technology scaling leads to increasingly significant power supply fluctuations, which need to be modeled accurately in circuit design and verification. Meanwhi...
On the classical discrete grid, the analysis of digital straight lines (DSL for short) has been intensively studied for nearly half a century. In this article, we are interested i...
In this work we apply graph theoretic tools to provide a close bound on a frontier relating the number of line outages in a grid to the power disrupted by the outages. This fronti...
The decrease in feature size and added chip functionality in large sub-micron integrated circuits demand larger grids for power distribution. Since power grids are performance lim...
