In this paper we analyze the impact of error detecting codes, implemented on an on-chip bus, on the on-chip simultaneous switching noise (SSN). First, we analyze in detail how SSN...
Discrete droplet digital microfluidics-based biochips face problems similar to that in other VLSI CAD systems, but with new constraints and interrelations. We focus on one such pr...

Systems integration is a major challenge in many industries. Systematic analysis of the complex integration effects, especially with respect to timing and performance, significant...
Mesh architectures are used to distribute critical global signals on a chip, such as clock and power/ground. Redundancy created by mesh loops smooths out undesirable variations be...
Soft errors have emerged as an important reliability challenge for nanoscale VLSI designs. In this paper, we present a fast and efficient soft error rate (SER) computation algorit...
