Model interpreters play an essential role in modelintegrated systems: they transform domain-specific models into executable models. The state-ot-the-art of model interpreter writi...
Engineering systems are becoming increasingly complex as state of the art technologies are incorporated into designs. Surety modeling and analysis is an emerging science which per...

Estimating peak power involves optimization of the circuit's switching function. We propose genetic spot expansion and optimization in this paper to estimate tight peak power...
Buffer insertion is an effective approach to achieve both minimal clock signal delay and skew in high speed VLSI circuit design. In this paper, we develop an optimal buffer ins...
In this paper, we consider delay optimization in multilayer detailed routing. Given a detailed routing by some detailed router, we iteratively improve the delays of critical nets ...
Typical placement objectives involve reducing net-cut cost or minimizing wirelength. Congestion minimization is least understood, however, it models routability accurately. In thi...
There is an increasing research interest in system level design languages which can carry designers from specification to implementation of system-on-a-chip. Unfortunately, two of...
The design and architectures of a microcode-based memory BIST and programmable FSM-based memory BIST unit are presented. The proposed microcode-based memory BIST unit is more e ci...
