The old school of analog designers, exemplified by pioneer Bob Pease, is becoming an extinct species. But the demand for analog/mixed-signal IP blocks has never been greater, espe...
Grid-warping is a recent placement strategy based on a novel physical analogy: rather than move the gates to optimize their location, it elastically deforms a model of the 2-D chi...
Test is often seen as a necessary evil; it is a fact of life that ICs have manufacturing defects and those need to be filtered out by testing before the ICs are shipped to the cu...

The performance of future manycore processors will only scale with the number of integrated cores if there is a corresponding increase in memory bandwidth. Projected scaling of el...
