The clock distribution and generation circuitry is known to consume more than a quarter of the power budget of existing microprocessors. A previously derived clock energy model is...

In this paper we address the the growing issue of junction tunneling leakage (Ijunc) at the circuit level. Specifically, we develop a fast approach to analyze the state-dependent ...
We consider the problem of minimizing the cost of the power required to achieve a specified level of quality-of-service (QoS) on a point-to-point link that may be assisted by an ...
Modern microprocessors employ one or two levels of on-chip cachesto bridge the burgeoning speeddisparities between the processor and the RAM. These SRAM caches are a major source ...
In deep submicron technology, IR-drop and clock skew issues become more crucial to the functionality of chip. This paper presents a oorplan-based power and clock distribution meth...
