Simultaneous buffer and interlayer via planning for 3D floorplanning
As technology advances, the interconnect delay among modules plays dominant role in chip performance. Buffer insertion, as a traditional approach to reduce wire delay in 2D ICs, i...

Integrated interlayer via planning and pin assignment for 3D ICs
As technology advances, 3D ICs are introduced for alleviating the interconnect problem coming with shrinking feature size and increasing integration density. In 3D ICs, one of the...

Fine grain 3D integration for microarchitecture design through cube packing exploration
Most previous 3D IC research focused on “stacking” traditional 2D silicon layers, so the interconnect reduction is limited to interblock delays. In this paper, we propose tech...
