Industrial applications often require failure analysis methods working non-destructively, enabling either a rapid quality control or fault isolation and defect localization prior ...
Most existing buffering algorithms neglect the impact of inductance on circuit performance, which causes large error in circuit analysis and optimization. Even for the approaches...
Electrostatic analysis of complicated molecular surfaces arises in a number of nanotechnology applications including: biomolecule design, carbon nanotube simulation, and molecular...
Placement is one of the most important steps in the RTLto-GDSII synthesis process, as it directly defines the interconnects, which have become the bottleneck in circuit and syste...
