This paper presents a logic restructuring technique named node addition and removal (NAR). It works by adding a node into a circuit to replace an existing node and then removing t...
The ability to control the variations in IC fabrication process is rapidly diminishing as feature sizes continue towards the sub-100 nm regime. As a result, there is an increasing...

As the technology progresses, interconnect delays have become bottlenecks of chip performance. Three dimensional (3D) integrated circuits are proposed as one way to address this p...
— Due to continuous technology scaling, the reduction of nodal capacitances and the lowering of power supply voltages result in an ever decreasing minimal charge capable of upset...
