Based on Rent’s rule, a well-established empirical relationship, a rigorous derivation of the interconnect fan-out distribution for random logic networks is performed. Through c...

In the past, a priori interconnect prediction, based on Rent’s rule, has been applied mainly for technology evaluation and roadmap applications. These applications do not requir...
Abstract. Rent's rule and related concepts of connectivity such as dimensionality, line-length distributions, and separators have found great use in fundamental studies of di ...
Individual dies in 3D integrated circuits are connected using throughsilicon-vias (TSVs). TSVs not only increase manufacturing cost, but also incur silicon area, delay, and power ...
