— This paper presents the design and dimensioning optimization of a novel optical network structure, called the Petaweb, having a total capacity of several Pb/s (1015 bit/s). Its...
Abstract. As process technology scales down, power wall starts to hinder improvements in processor performance. Performance optimization has to proceed under a power constraint. Th...
High-speed serial network interfaces are gaining wide use in connecting multiple processors and peripherals in modern embedded systems, thanks to their size advantage and power ef...
We discuss a di cult optimization problem on a chess-board, requiring equal numbers of black and white queens to be placed on the board so that the white queens cannot attack the b...
As VLSI technology moves to the 65nm node and beyond, interconnect delay greatly limits the circuit performance. As a critical component in interconnect synthesis, layer assignmen...
