The sequence-pair was proposed in 1994 as a representation of the packing of rectangles of general structure. Since then, there have been eorts to expand its applicability over s...
—Maze routing algorithms are widely used for finding an optimal path in detailed routing for very large scale integration, printed circuit board and multichip modules In this pap...
The presence of fixed terminals in hypergraph partitioning instances arising in top-down standard-cell placement makes such instances qualitatively different from the free hyperg...

A novel approach to testing sequential circuits that uses multi-level decision diagram representations is introduced. The proposed algorithm consists of a combination of scanning ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the battery life (or duration of service) in battery-powered CMOS circuits. We first show that the battery efficiency (or utili...
This paper describes a simulation technique for RealTime Hw/Sw systems based on an object executable model. It allows designers to seamlessly estimate and verify their solutions f...
We formalize the problem of analog data compression and analyze the existence of a polynomial data compression function. Under relaxed conditions we explore the existence of a sol...
