Leakage-and crosstalk-aware bus encoding for total power reduction
Power consumption, particularly runtime leakage, in long on-chip buses has grown to an unacceptable portion of the total power budget due to heavy buffer insertion to combat RC de...

Optimizing dominant time constant in RC circuits
— Conventional methods for optimal sizing of wires and transistors use linear resistor-capacitor (RC) circuit models and the Elmore delay as a measure of signal delay. If the RC ...
