Throughput of multi-core processors under thermal constraints
We analyze the effect of thermal constraints on the performance and power of multi-core processors. We propose system-level power and thermal models, and derive expressions for (a...

A low-power SRAM using bit-line charge-recycling technique
We propose a new low-power SRAM using bit-line Charge Recycling (CR-SRAM) for the write operation. In the proposed write scheme, differential voltage swing of a bit-line is obtain...

Detailed placement for leakage reduction using systematic through-pitch variation
We present a novel detailed placement technique that accounts for systematic through-pitch variations to reduce leakage. Leakage depends nearly exponentially on linewidth (gate le...
