Randomization is an efficient tool for global optimization. We here define a method which keeps : – the order 0 of evolutionary algorithms (no gradient) ; – the stochastic as...
While process variations are becoming more significant with each new IC technology generation, they are often modeled via linear regression models so that the resulting performanc...
