—Multimedia requirements of the 1990’s drove wired and optical network architects to reconsider the inefficiencies of packet switching and consider long proven methods such as...
Within two or three technology generations, processor architects will face a number of major challenges. Wire delays will become critical, and power considerations will temper the ...
This paper shows that a novel network called the fat-stack is universally efficient when adequate capacity distribution is provided and is suitable for use as an interconnection n...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
In this paper, we address the interconnect-driven floorplanning problem that integrates OPC-friendly bus assignment with floorplanning. Buses consist of a number of horizontal/v...
