Gate sizing in VLSI design is a widely-used method for power or area recovery subject to timing constraints. Several previous works have proposed gate sizing heuristics for power ...
A variety of modern technologies such as networks, Internet, and electronic services demand private and secure communications for a great number of everyday transactions. Security ...
Design Rule Checking (DRC) in VLSI design involves checking if a given VLSI layout satisfies a given set of rules, and reporting the violations if any. We propose data structures ...
This paper considers the rate optimal VLSI design of a recursive data flow graph (DFG). Previous research on rate optimal scheduling is not directly applicable to VLSI design. We ...
