If motion estimation can choose the most suitable algorithm according to the changing characteristics of input image signals, we can get benefits, which improve quality and perfor...
The radiation and surface wave losses may give rise to electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems in high speed VLSI interconnects. Over and above there will be dielectric and co...
In preemptive real-time systems, a tighter estimate of the Worst Case Response Time(WCRT) of the tasks can be obtained if the layout of the tasks in memory is included in the esti...
Microprocessors with built-in Liquid Crystal Device (LCD) controllers and equipped with Flash ROM are common in mobile computing applications. In the first part of the paper, a so...
Compare CMOS Logic with Pass-Transistor Logic, a question was raised in our mind: "Does any rule exist that contains all good?" This paper reveals novel logic synthesis ...
Interconnect delay has become a critical factor in determining the performance of integrated circuits. Routing and buffering are powerful means of improving the circuit speed and ...
Steiner tree is a fundamental problem in the automatic interconnect optimization for VLSI design. We present a probabilistic analysis method for constructing rectilinear Steiner t...
Satisfiability of complex word-level formulas often arises as a problem in formal verification of hardware designs described at the register transfer level (RTL). Even though most...
Predictive delay analysis is presented for a representative CMOS inverter with submicron device size using PREDICTMOS MOSFET model. As against SPICE, which adopts a time consuming...
