In this paper, we present a fast and efficient Iterative Improvement Partitioning (IIP) technique for VLSI circuits and hybrid bucket structures on its implementation. Due to thei...
There is an increasing need in modern VLSI designs for circuits implemented in high-performance logic families such as Cascode Voltage Switch Logic, Pass Transistor Logic, and dom...
This paper presents a novel approach for post-mapping optimization. We exploit the concept of generalized matching, a technique that nds symbolically all possible matching assignm...
Circuit simulation is one of the most computationally expensive tasks in circuit design and optimization. Detailed simulation at the level of precision of SPICE is usually perform...
Shade is an instruction-set simulator and custom trace generator. Application programs are executed and traced under the control of a user-supplied trace analyzer. To reduce commu...
