For a set S of points in Rd, an s-spanner is a graph on S such that any pair of points is connected via some path in the spanner whose total length is at most s times the Euclidea...
Chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) and other manufacturing steps in very deep-submicron VLSI have varying effects on device and interconnect features, depending on the local ...
The next generation of computer chips will continue the trend for more complexity than their predecessors. Many of them will contain different chip technologies and are termed SoC...
As current trends in software development move toward more complex object-oriented programming, inlining has become a vital optimization that provides substantial performance impr...
A scalable laser-based timing analysis technique we call laser assisted device alteration (LADA) is introduced for the rapid isolation and analysis of defect-free performance limi...
