Abstract— A Kauffman network is an abstract model of gene regulatory networks. Each gene is represented by a vertex. An edge from one vertex to another implies that the former ge...
Abstract— Physics offers several active devices with nanometerscale footprint, which can be best used in combination with a CMOS subsystem. Such hybrid circuits offer the potenti...
Heat dissipation is one of the most serious challenges in 3D IC designs. One effective way of reducing circuit temperature is to introduce thermal through-the-silicon (TTS) vias....
A novel and very simple correct-by-construction top-down methodology for high-utilization mixed-size placement is presented. The PolarBear algorithm combines recursive cutsize-dri...
Many commercially available embedded processors are capable of extending their base instruction set for a specific domain of applications. While steady progress has been made in t...
— In this paper, an efficient linear time algorithm TACO is proposed for the first time to minimize the worst case clock skew in the presence of on-chip thermal variation. TACO...
The presence of unknown values in the simulation result is a key barrier to effective output response compaction in practice. This paper proposes a simple circuit module, called a...

Separate optimizations of logic and layout have been thoroughly studied in the past and are well documented for common benchmarks. However, to be competitive, modern circuit optim...
Future inter- and intra-ULSI interconnect systems demand extremely high data rates as well as bi-directional multi-I/O concurrent service, re-configurable computing/processing arc...
