Because of the increasing dominance of interconnect issues in advanced IC technology, placement has become a critical step in the IC design flow. To get accurate interconnect inf...
In the nanometer IC design, dummy fill is often performed to improve layout pattern uniformity and the post-CMP quality. However, filling dummies might greatly increase intercon...
Multiprocessor System-on-Chips (MPSoCs) are nowadays widely used, but the problem of their software development persists to be one of the biggest challenges for developers. Virtua...
Cutting-edge applications of future embedded systems demand highest processor performance with low power consumption to get acceptable battery-life times. Therefore, low power opt...
