As CMOS technology scales deeper into the nanometer regime, factors such as leakage power and chip temperature emerge as critically important concerns for VLSI design. This paper,...
Structured ASICs provide an exciting middle ground between FPGA and ASIC design methodologies. Compared to ASIC, structured ASIC based designs require lower non recurring engineer...
this paper proposes a novel Process Variation Aware SRAM architecture designed to inherently support voltage scaling. The peripheral circuitry of the SRAM is modified to selectivel...

In sub-90nm process technology it becomes harder to control the fabrication process, which in turn causes variations between the design-time parameters and the fabricated paramete...
—Designing high-performance systems with high yield under parameter variations has raised serious design challenges in nanometer technologies. In this paper, we propose a profit-...
