Fault-tolerant 3D clock network
Clock tree synthesis is one of the most important and challenging problems in 3D ICs. The clock signals have to be delivered by through-silicon vias (TSVs) to different tiers with...

Full-chip TSV-to-TSV coupling analysis and optimization in 3D IC
This paper studies TSV-to-TSV coupling in 3D ICs. A full-chip SI analysis flow is proposed based on the proposed coupling model. Analysis results show that TSVs cause significan...

Plugging versus logging: a new approach to write buffer management for solid-state disks
Using device write buffers is a promising technique to improve the write performance of solid-state disks. The write buffer not only reduces the write traffic to the flash but als...
