Traditionally, clock network layout is performed after cell placement. Such methodology is facing a serious problem in nanometer IC designs where people tend to use huge clock buff...
Due to the inherent nature of heat flow in 3D integrated circuits, stacked dies exhibit a wide range of thermal characteristics. The strong dependence of leakage with temperature...
—Virtualization offers the potential for cost-effective service provisioning. For service providers who make significant investments in new virtualized data centers in support of...
As IC technologies scale to finer feature sizes, it becomes increasingly difficult to control the relative process variations. The increasing fluctuations in manufacturing process...
