We highlight several fundamental challenges to designing highperformance integrated circuits in nanometer-scale technologies (i.e. drawn feature sizes < 100 nm). Dynamic power ...
Recursive partitioning based placement has a long history, but there has been little consensus on how cut sequences should be chosen. In this paper, we present a dynamic programmi...
Non-uniform temperature profiles along global interconnect lines in high-performance ICs can significantly impact the performance of these lines. This paper presents a detailed an...

Crosstalk effects degrade the integrity of signals traveling on long interconnects and must be addressed during manufacturing testing. External testing for crosstalk is expensive ...
: Fault-based side channel cryptanalysis is very effective against symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. Although straightforward hardware and time redundancy based concu...
