Multicore has shown significant performance and power advantages over single cores in commercial systems with a 2-4 cores. Applying a corollary of Moore's Law for multicore, ...
Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open problem and largely unsolved. In mos...
A key step in the design of cyclo-static real-time systems is the determination of buffer capacities. In our multi-processor system, we apply back-pressure, which means that tasks...
Many STUMPS architectures found in current chip designs allow disabling of individual scan chains for debug and diagnosis. In a recent paper it has been shown that this feature can...

Abstract-- In nanometer-scale VLSI technologies, several interconnect issues like routing congestion and interconnect delay have become the main concerns in placement. However, all...
High efficiency low voltage DC-DC conversion is a key enabler to the design of power-efficient integrated circuits. Typically a star configuration of the DC-DC converters, where o...
In this paper we address the the growing issue of junction tunneling leakage (Ijunc) at the circuit level. Specifically, we develop a fast approach to analyze the state-dependent ...
