Test scheduling is an important problem in system-on-a-chip (SOC) test automation. Efficient test schedules minimize the overall system test application time, avoid test resource c...
The design of programmable logic architectures and supporting computer-aided design tools fundamentally requires both a good understanding of the combinatorial nature of netlist gr...

This paper proposes split shared-bus architecture to reduce the energy dissipation for global data exchange among a set of interconnected modules. The bus splitting problem for mi...
As IC densities are increasing, cluster-based FPGA architectures are becoming the architecture of choice for major FPGA manufacturers. A cluster-based architecture is one in which...
System-on-a-chip (SOC) platform manufacturers are increasingly adding configurable features that provide power and performance flexibility in order to increase a platform's ap...
As very large scale integration (VLSI) circuit speed rapidly increases, the inductive effects of interconnect lines strongly impact the signal integrity of a circuit. Since these i...

Embedded hard real-time software systems often need fine-grained parallelism and precise control of timing, things typical real-time operating systems do not provide. The Esterel l...
In this paper, we propose a new approach for VLSI interconnect global routing that can optimize both congestion and delay, which are often competing objectives. Our approach provi...
Abstract--In this paper, we study wire width planning for interconnect performance optimization in an interconnect-centric design flow. We first propose some simplified, yet near-o...
