Density gradient minimization with coupling-constrained dummy fill for CMP control
In the nanometer IC design, dummy fill is often performed to improve layout pattern uniformity and the post-CMP quality. However, filling dummies might greatly increase intercon...

Combining strengths of circuit-based and CNF-based algorithms for a high-performance SAT solver
We propose Satisfiability Checking (SAT) techniques that lead to a consistent performance improvement of up to 3x over state-ofthe-art SAT solvers like Chaff on important problem ...

Speeding Up Model-based Diagnosis by a Heuristic Approach to Solving SAT
Model-based diagnosis of technical systems requires both a simulation machinery and a logic calculus. The former is responsible for the system's behavior analysis, the latter...

Limits and Applications of Group Algebras for Parameterized Problems
The algebraic framework introduced in [Koutis, Proc. of the 35th ICALP 2008] reduces several combinatorial problems in parameterized complexity to the problem of detecting multili...

Probabilistic modeling of dependencies during switching activity analysis
—This paper addresses, from a probabilistic point of view, the issue of switching activity estimation in combinational circuits under the zero-delay model. As the main theoretica...
