We present an efficient optimization scheme for gate sizing in the presence of process variations. Our method is a worst-case design scheme, but it reduces the pessimism involved i...

Background: The problem of protein structure prediction consists of predicting the functional or native structure of a protein given its linear sequence of amino acids. This probl...
With increasing process variation, binning has become an important technique to improve the values of fabricated chips, especially in high performance microprocessors where transpa...
Abstract--Technology scaling in the nanometer era has increased the transistor's susceptibility to process variations. The effects of such variations are having a huge impact ...
