Power has become a critical concern for battery-driven computing systems, on which many applications that are run are interactive. System-level voltage scaling techniques, such as...
In this paper, we propose a new global router, BoxRouter, powered by the concept of box expansion and progressive integer linear programming (ILP). BoxRouter first uses a simple P...
We present a reinforcement learning architecture, Dyna-2, that encompasses both samplebased learning and sample-based search, and that generalises across states during both learni...
Title of thesis: EFFICIENT AND ACCURATE STATISTICAL TIMING ANALYSIS FOR NON-LINEAR NON-GAUSSIAN VARIABILITY WITH INCREMENTAL ATTRIBUTES Ashish Dobhal, Master of Science, 2006 Thes...
As transistor process technology approaches the nanometer scale, process variation significantly affects the design and optimization of high performance microprocessors. Prior stu...
