Silicon design implementation has become increasingly complex with the deep submicron technologies such as 90nm and below. It is common to see multiple processor cores, several ty...
Design rules in advanced IC manufacturing processes are increasingly problematic for modern router architectures and algorithms. This paper first reviews types and causes of “d...
Even though the design of business processes most often has to consolidate the knowledge of several process stakeholders, this fact is utilized only to a limited extent by existing...
Gate sizing and threshold voltage (Vt) assignment are popular techniques for circuit timing and power optimization. Existing methods, by and large, are either sensitivity-driven h...
