Fast decap allocation based on algebraic multigrid
Decap (decoupling capacitor) is an effective technique for suppressing power supply noise. Nevertheless, over-usage of decap usually causes excessive power dissipation. Therefore...

Pipeline Damping: A Microarchitectural Technique to Reduce Inductive Noise in Supply Voltage
Scaling of CMOS technology causes the power supply voltages to fall and supply currents to rise at the same time as operating speeds are increasing. Falling supply voltages cause ...
