Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...
The combination of flit-buffer flow control methods and latency-insensitive protocols is an effective solution for networks-on-chip (NoC). Since they both rely on backpressure...
Starting from the 90nm technology node, process induced stress has played a key role in the design of highperformance devices. The emergence of source/drain silicon germanium (S/D ...
Rectangle (square) packing problems involve packing all squares with sizes 1 × 1 to n × n into the minimum area enclosing rectangle (respectively, square). Rectangle packing is a...
This paper studies the impact on energy efficiency and thermal behavior of design style and clock-gating style in queue and array structures. These structures are major sources of...
