As VLSI technology reaches 45nm technology node, leakage power optimization has become a major design challenge. Threshold voltage (vt) assignment has been extensively studied, du...
Hybrid algorithms that combine genetic algorithms with the Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm have been effective in solving certain optimization problems. In this article, we apply a s...
