Microfluidic biochips are revolutionizing many areas of biochemistry and biomedical sciences. Several synthesis tools have recently been proposed for the automated design of bioch...
As feature sizes decrease and chip sizes increase, the area and performance of chips become dominated by the interconnect. In spite of this trend, most existing synthesis systems ...
Abstract— Thermal issues are a primary concern in the threedimensional (3D) integrated circuit (IC) design. Temperature, area, and wire length must be simultaneously optimized du...
