Three-Dimensional integration provides a simultaneous improvement in wire-related delay and power consumption of microprocessor circuits. Prior work has looked at the performance,...
We prove an exponential lower bound for the size of constant depth multilinear arithmetic circuits computing either the determinant or the permanent (a circuit is called multiline...
Complex arithmetic computations, especially if derived from bit-level software descriptions, can be very inefficient if implemented directly in hardware (e.g., by translation of t...
-- Analog circuit sizing under process/parameter variations is formulated as a mini-max geometric programming problem. To tackle such problem, we present a new method that combines...
Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open problem and largely unsolved. In mos...
