A power estimation approach is presented in which blocks of consecutive vectors are selected at random from a user-supplied realistic input vector set and the circuit is simulated...
Estimating peak power involves optimization of the circuit's switching function. We propose genetic spot expansion and optimization in this paper to estimate tight peak power...
New measures of peak power in the context of sequential circuits are proposed. This paper presents an automatic procedure to obtain very good lower bounds on these measures as wel...

Modern VLSI design methodologies and manufacturing technologies are making circuits increasingly fast. The quest for higher circuit performance and integration density stems from f...
An accurate and efficient stacking effect macro-model for leakage power in sub-100nm circuits is presented in this paper. Leakage power, including subthreshold leakage power and ga...
