There are already a huge number of problems for silicon designers and it is likely to just get worse. Many of these problems are technical associated with shrinking geometries and...
Behavioral models of digital devices based on Radial Basis Functions (RBF) are incorporated into a Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) solver for full-wave analysis of interconne...
