Current logic synthesis techniques are ineffective for arithmetic circuits. They perform poorly for XOR-dominated circuits, and those with a high fan-in dependency between inputs ...
To address the real-time processing needs of large and growing amounts of data, modern software increasingly uses main memory as the primary data store for critical information. T...

Due to the breakdown of Dennardian scaling, the percentage of a silicon chip that can switch at full frequency is dropping exponentially with each process generation. This utiliza...
With the circuit density available in today’s ASIC design systems, increased integration is possible creating more complexity in the design of a System on a Chip (SoC). IBM’s ...
