As the level of chip integration continues to advance at a fast pace, the desire for efficient interconnects-whether on-chip or off-chip--is rapidly increasing. Traditional interc...
This paper presents an efficient method for optimizing power/ground (P/G) networks by widening wires and adding decoupling capacitors (decaps). It proposes a structured skeleton t...
A cache access time model, PRACTICS (PRedictor of Access and Cycle TIme for Cache Stack), has been developed to optimize the memory array architecture for the minimum access and c...
