Placement of 3D ICs with Thermal and Interlayer Via Considerations
Thermal problems and limitations on interlayer via densities are important design constraints on three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs), and need to be considered during g...

Whitespace redistribution for thermal via insertion in 3D stacked ICs
One of the biggest challenges in 3D stacked IC design is heat dissipation. Incorporating thermal vias is a promising method for reducing the temperatures of 3D ICs. The bonding st...
