Today, VLSI systems for computationally demanding applications are being built as Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) with a distributed memory sub-system which is shared by a large number of ...
State-of-the-art FPGA architectures have millions of gates in CLBs, Block RAMs, and Multiplier blocks which can host fairly large designs. While their physical design calls for oor...
The robustness of engines for ATPG has to be improved to cope with the growing size of circuits. Recently, SAT-based ATPG approaches have been shown to be very robust even on larg...
Performance of an application can be improved through augmenting the processor with Application specific Functional Units (AFUs). Usually a cluster of operations identified from th...
Boolean Satisfiability is seeing increasing use as a decision procedure in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and other domains. Most applications encode their domain specific cons...
Leakage power is becoming a dominant contributor to the total power consumption and dual-Vth assignment is an efficient technique to decrease leakage power, for which effective de...
