In the past, a priori interconnect prediction, based on Rent’s rule, has been applied mainly for technology evaluation and roadmap applications. These applications do not requir...
This paper presents a detailed description of the application of a formal verification methodology to an ARM processor. The processor, a hybrid between the ARM7 and the StrongARM ...
This paper presents Timed Petri Nets (TPN) as an analytical approach for verification of computerized queueing network simulation models at steady state. It introduces a generic a...
Polynomial identity testing (PIT) problem is known to be challenging even for constant depth arithmetic circuits. In this work, we study the complexity of two special but natural ...
Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) has become the dominant reliability concern for nanoscale PMOS transistors. In this paper, a predictive model is developed for the deg...
