Energy-efficient microprocessor designs are one of the major concerns in both high performance and embedded processor domains. Furthermore, as process technology advances toward d...
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) is becoming increasingly important as process geometries shrink. Conventional design rule pass/fail is not adequate to quantify DFM compliance. ...
Advances in semiconductor process and design technology enable the design of complex system chips. Traditional IC design, in which every circuit is designed from scratch and reuse...
In many applications such as high-level synthesis (HLS) and logic synthesis and possibly engineering change order (ECO) we would like to get fast and accurate estimations of diffe...
Functional labels provide a simple but very reusable way for defining the functionality of a system and for making use of that knowledge. Unlike more complex functional representa...
