Wireless sensor networks require shared medium access management to prevent collisions, message corruption and other unhelpful effects. Cellular sensornets require minimal energy ...
This paper studies the effects of clustering as a pre-processing step and routability estimation in the placement flow. The study shows that when clustering and routability estima...
Computational protein design can be formulated as an optimization problem, where the objective is to identify the sequence of amino acids that minimizes the energy of a given prot...

Multi-core processors have become an integral part of mainstream high performance computer systems. In parallel, exponentially increasing power density and packaging costs have ne...
Heat removal and power delivery have become two major reliability concerns in 3D stacked IC technology. For thermal problem, two possible solutions exist: thermal-through-silicon-...
In this paper, we propose a new technique, referred to as virtual probe (VP), to efficiently measure, characterize and monitor both inter-die and spatially-correlated intra-die va...
Economic incentives have driven the semiconductor industry to separate design from fabrication in recent years. This trend leads to potential vulnerabilities from untrusted circui...
Phase-change random access memory (PCRAM) is an emerging memory technology with attractive features, such as fast read access, high density, and non-volatility. Because of these a...
