The width of an interconnect line a ects the total power consumed by a circuit. A tradeo exists, however, between the dynamic power and the short-circuit power in determining the ...
This paper describes a technique for re-ordering of scan cells to minimize power dissipation that is also capable of reducing the area overhead of the circuit compared to a random...
This paper discusses the design and implementation of finite state machines (FSM) with combinational circuits that are built primarily from RAM blocks. It suggests a novel state as...
This paper describes an application of a Constructive Genetic Algorithm (CGA) to the Gate Matrix Layout Problem (GMLP). The GMLP happens in very large scale integration (VLSI) desi...
—While array structures are a significant source of power dissipation, there is a lack of accurate high-level power estimators that account for varying array circuit implementat...
