-- In interconnect-dominated designs, the ability to minimize layout-induced parasitic effects is crucial for rapid design closure. Deep sub-micron effects and ubiquitous interfere...
Both custom IC and FPGA designs in the nanometer regime suffer from process variations. But different from custom ICs, FPGAs' programmability offers a unique design freedom t...
Division is a fundamental problem for arithmetic and algebraic computation. This paper describes Boolean circuits of bounded fan-in for integer division nding reciprocals that...
As semiconductor processing technology continues to scale down, managing reliability becomes an increasingly difficult challenge in high-performance microprocessor design. Transie...
We present a new technique to examine the trade-off regions of a circuit where its competing performances become “simultaneously optimal”, i.e. Pareto optimal. It is based on ...
