A new methodology is presented to solve a strongly nonlinear circuit, characterized by Piece-Wise Linear (PWL) functions, symbolically and explicitly in terms of its circuit param...
The Threshold Dominating Set problem is that of determining for a graph G = (V, E) whether there is a subset V ⊆ V of size k, such that for each vertex v ∈ V there are at leas...
We describe an optimization strategy for minimizing total power consumption using dual threshold voltage (Vth) technology. Significant power savings are possible by simultaneous a...

Noise affects circuit operation by increasing gate delays and causing latches to capture incorrect values. Noise analysis techniques can detect some of such noise faults, but accu...
