Buffer insertion has become a critical step in deep submicron design, and several buffer insertion/sizing algorithms have been proposed in the literature. However, most of these m...

- This paper proposes a distributed directory cache coherence protocol and compares the performance of the proposed protocol with fully mapped and single linked list protocols for ...
Most traffic management and optimization tasks, such as accident detection or optimal vehicle routing, require an ability to adequately model, reason about and predict irregular an...
A flow on a directed network is said to be confluent if the flow uses at most one outgoing arc at each node. Confluent flows arise naturally from destination-based routing. We stud...
For timing-driven or yield-driven designs, non-tree routing has become more and more popular and additional loops provide the redundant paths to protect against the effect of the ...
