Abstract— Self-calibrating designs have recently gained momentum as an alternative to methods relying on worst-case characterisation of silicon [2], [4], [8]. So far, reliable op...
— In the past, dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) has been widely used for power and energy optimization in embedded system design. As thermal issues become increasingl...

With its advantages in wirelength reduction and routing flexibility compared with Manhattan routing, X-architecture has been proposed and applied to modern IC design. As a critic...
Abstract—A Network-on-Chip (NoC) replaces on-chip communication implemented by point-to-point interconnects in a multi-core environment by a set of shared interconnects connected...
— Fast and accurate routing congestion estimation is essential for optimizations such as floorplanning, placement, buffering, and physical synthesis that need to avoid routing c...
