The ability to compute the parasitic inductance of the interconnect is critical to the timing verification of modern VLSI circuits. A challenging aspect of inductance extraction i...
We present a set of techniques for placement-coupled, timingdriven logic replication. Two components are at the core of the approach. First is an algorithm for optimal timingdrive...
Abstract— Reliability enhancements are traditionally implemented through redundancies at the system level or through the use of harden-cell-designs at the circuit level. Reliabil...
In this paper, a simulation-based synthesis tool, AMIGO, for analog cell sizing is presented. AMIGO is based upon genetic optimization techniques adapted to circuit sizing. A fram...
Redundant call elimination has been an important program optimisation process as it can produce super-linear speedup in optimised programs. In this paper, we investigate use of the...
