In this paper, we present the design of a P4 (Power-PerformanceProcess-Parasitic) aware voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) at nanoCMOS technologies. Through simulations, we have ...
Abstract— We introduce a dynamic battery model that describes the variations of the capacity of a battery under time varying discharge current. This model is input-output equival...
This paper provides four contributions to the study of optimization techniques for component-based distributed realtime and embedded (DRE) systems. First, we describe key challeng...
Ultra-deep submicron manufacturability impacts physical design (PD) through complex layout rules and large guardbands for process variability; this creates new requirements for ne...
At every stage in physical design, engineers are faced with many different objectives and tools to develop, optimize, and evaluate their design. Each choice of a tool or an objec...
