For many years, CMOS process scaling has allowed a steady increase in the operating frequency and integration density of integrated circuits. Only recently, however, have we reach...
Circuit interconnect has become a substantial obstacle in the design of high performance systems. In this paper we explore a new routing paradigm that strikes at the root of the i...
System-level design techniques promise a way to lessen the productivity gap between fabrication and design. Unfortunately, these techniques have been slow to catch on, in part bec...
We describe a method to clock the domino pipeline at the maximum rate by using soft synchronizers between pipeline stages and thus allowing "time borrowing," i.e., allow...
PAM-Blox are object-oriented circuit generators on top of the PCI Pamette design environment, PamDC. High- performance FPGA design for adaptive computing is simplified by using a ...
