Thermally Aware Design
With greater integration, the power dissipation in integrated circuits has begun to outpace the ability of today's heat sinks to limit the on-chip temperature. As a result, t...

Parametric yield in FPGAs due to within-die delay variations: a quantitative analysis
Variations in the semiconductor fabrication process results in variability in parameters between transistors on the same die, a problem exacerbated by lithographic scaling. The re...

Pattern sensitive placement for manufacturability
When VLSI technology scales toward 45nm, the lithography wavelength stays at 193nm. This large gap results in strong refractive effects in lithography. Consequently, it is a huge...
