Non-uniform utilization of functional units in combination with hardware mechanisms such as clock gating leads to different power consumptions in different parts of a processor ch...
: Power consumption in datapath modules due to redundant switching is an important design concern for high-performance applications. Operand isolation schemes are adopted to reduce...
With the increase of design complexities and the decrease of minimal feature sizes, IP reuse is becoming a common practice while crosstalk is becoming a critical issue that must b...
─ In this paper, we present Forge, an optimal algorithm for gate sizing using the Elmore delay model. The algorithm utilizes Lagrangian relaxation with a fast gradient-based pre-...
