The progress of GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) technology opens a new avenue for boosting computing power. This work is an attempt to exploit GPU for accelerating VLSI circuit opt...
Process variations have become a serious concern for nanometer technologies. The interconnect and device variations include interand intra-die variations of geometries, as well as...

Boolean Satisfiability is seeing increasing use as a decision procedure in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and other domains. Most applications encode their domain specific cons...
We address the problem of computing critical area for missing material defects in a circuit layout. The extraction of critical area is the main computational problem in VLSI yield...
We propose two practical approaches for on-chip inductance extraction to obtain a highly sparsified and accurate inverse inductance matrix K. Both approaches differ from previous ...
