In this paper, we present an approved linear-time algorithm for statistical leakage analysis in the present of any spatial correlation condition (strong or weak). The new algorith...
We present a technique for automatic verification of pipelined microprocessors using model checking. Antecedent conditioned slicing is an efficient abstraction technique for hardw...

As CMOS technology scales into the nanometer regime, power dissipation and associated thermal concerns in high-performance ICs due to on-chip hot-spots and thermal gradients are b...
Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) has been identified as a major and critical reliability issue for PMOS devices in nano-scale designs. It manifests as a negative thres...
