Three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs) provide an attractive solution for improving circuit performance. Such solutions must be embedded in an electrothermally-conscious d...
Abstract— The analysis of effects induced by interconnects become increasingly important as the scale of process technologies steadily shrinks. While most analyses focus on the t...
This paper describes a new design methodology to analyze the on-chip power supply noise for high performance microprocessors. Based on an integrated package-level and chip-level p...
This paper proposes an environment to address Testability Analysis and Test Pattern Generation on VHDL descriptions at the RT-level. The proposed approach, based on a suitable fau...
The paper presents a technique for the design of digital circuits based on reusable hardware templates (HT). Any HT is being constructed in such a way that it might be employed for...
