Digital microfluidic biochips have emerged as a popular alternative for laboratory experiments. To make the biochip feasible for practical applications, pin-count reduction is a k...
Voltage islanding technique in Network-on-Chip (NoC) can significantly reduce the computational energy consumption by scaling down the voltage levels of the processing elements (P...
Important layout properties of electronic designs include interconnection length values, clock speed, area requirements, and power dissipation. A reliable estimation of those prop...
Clock tree synthesis is one of the most important and challenging problems in 3D ICs. The clock signals have to be delivered by through-silicon vias (TSVs) to different tiers with...
