— Modern sub-micron VLSI designs include huge power grids that are required to distribute large amounts of current, at increasingly lower voltages. The resulting voltage drop on ...
In this work, we present an algorithm for simultaneous template generation and matching. The algorithm profiles the graph and iteratively contracts edges to create the templates. ...

More aggressive design practices have created renewed interest in techniques for analyzing substrate coupling problems. Most previous work has focused primarily on faster techniqu...
Given a test set for stuck-at faults, some of primary input values may be changed to opposite logic values without losing fault coverage. We can regard such input values as don’...
We present a two-level Boolean minimization tool (BOOM) based on a new implicant generation paradigm. In contrast to all previous minimization methods, where the implicants are ge...
- This paper presents a spectrally-weighted balanced truncation technique for RLC interconnects, a technique needed when the interconnect circuit parameters change as a result of v...
Efficient high level design tools that can map behavioral descriptions to FPGA architectures are one of the key requirements to fully leverage FPGA for high throughput computatio...
