The threshold voltage (Vth) of a nanoscale transistor is severely affected by random dopant fluctuations and line-edge roughness. The analysis of these effects usually requires at...
Emerging single-chip heterogeneous multiprocessors feature hundreds of design elements contending for shared resources, making it difficult to isolate performance impacts of indiv...
Memory-related activity is one of the major sources of energy consumption in embedded systems. Many types of memories used in embedded systems allow multiple operating modes (e.g....
In many of embedded systems, particularly for those with high data computations, the delay of memory access is one of the major bottlenecks in the system's performance. It ha...
As a prevalent constraint, sharp slew rate is often required in circuit design which causes a huge demand for buffering resources. This problem requires ultra-fast buffering techn...
