Interconnect delay has become a critical factor in determining the performance of integrated circuits. Routing and buffering are powerful means of improving the circuit speed and ...
I/O placement has always been a concern in modern IC design. Due to flip-chip technology, I/O can be placed throughout the whole chip without long wires from the periphery of the...

In this paper, we present an integrated approach to floorplanning and bus planning, i.e., bus-driven floorplanning (BDF). We are given a set of circuit blocks and the bus speci...
Monte Carlo based SSTA serves as the golden standard against alternative SSTA algorithms, but it is seldom used in practice due to its high computation time. In this paper, we acc...

The first memristor, originally theorized by Dr. Leon Chua in 1971, was identified by a team at HP Labs in 2008. This new fundamental circuit element is unique in that its resis...
