Pattern-based synthesis has drawn wide interest from researchers who tried to utilize the regularity in applications for design optimizations. In this paper we present a general p...
Shallow trench isolation (STI) is the mainstream CMOS isolation technology. It uses chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) to remove excess of deposited oxide and attain a planar...

This paper addresses two aspects of low-power design for FPGA circuits. First, we present an RT-level power estimator for FPGAs with consideration of wire length. The power estima...
: The availability of enormous amounts of un-used computing power and data storage over the In-ternet makes the development of a globally distributed computing platform, called Ove...
