In this paper, we present an algorithm for delay minimization of interconnect trees by simultaneous buffer insertion/sizing and wire sizing. The algorithm integrates the quadratic...
An optimization algorithm for the design of combinational circuits that are robust to single-event upsets (SEUs) is described. A simple, highly accurate model for the SEU robustne...
Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures have been adopted by a growing number of multi-core designs as a flexible and scalable solution to the increasing wire delay constraints in the...

The classic algorithm for optimal buffer insertion due to van Ginneken has time and space complexity O(n2 ), where n is the number of possible buffer positions. We present a new a...
This paper explores the power implications of replacing global chip wires with an on-chip network. We optimize network links by varying repeater spacing, link pipelining, and volt...
