Incremental exploration of the combined physical and behavioral design space
Achieving design closure is one of the biggest headaches for modern VLSI designers. This problem is exacerbated by high-level design automation tools that ignore increasingly impo...

ACTIF: A High-Level Power Estimation Tool for Analog Continuous-Time-Filters
A tool is presented that gives a high-level estimation of the power consumed by an analog continuous-time OTA-C filter when given only high-level input parameters such as dynamic ...

Unifying behavioral synthesis and physical design
eously demand shorter and less costly design cycles. Designing at higher levels of abstraction makes both objectives achievable, but enabling techniques like behavioral synthesis h...

Synthesis of Power-Optimized and Area-Optimized Circuits from Hierarchical Behavioral Descriptions
We present a technique for synthesizing power- as well as area-optimized circuits from hierarchical data flow graphs under throughput constraints. We allow for the use of complex...
