— As the technology scales into 90nm and below, process-induced variations become more pronounced. In this paper, we propose an efficient stochastic method for analyzing the vol...
In this paper we demonstrate the impact of the floorplan on the temperature-dependent leakage power of a System on Chip (SoC). We propose a novel system level temperature aware a...
