3-D monolithic integration (3DMI), also termed as sequential integration, is a potential technology for future gigascale circuits. Since the device layers are processed in sequent...
We consider the problem of minimizing the delay in transporting a signal across a distance in a VLSI circuit.The problem can be restated as a combined buffer insertion, buffer siz...
