Higher transistor transition frequencies, lower supply voltages and smaller physical dimensions are, nowadays, general trends in the semiconductor industry. Operating at lower sup...
In this paper a graph-based method is presented which not only characterizes topological classification of the tessellated surfaces but also simultaneously generates the substanti...
Metal-only ECO realizes the last-minute design changes by revising the photomasks of metal layers only. This task is challenging because the pre-injected spare cells are limited b...
— Energy efficiency has become one of the most important issues to be addressed in today’s System-on-a-Chip (SoC) designs. One way to lower the power consumption is to reduce ...
We address the problem of minimizing power consumption in behavioral synthesis of data-dominated circuits. The complex nature of power as a cost function implies that the effects ...
