In this paper, we derive the X-half-perimeter wirelength (XHPWL) model for X-architecture placement and explore the effects of three different wire models on X-architecture plac...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
— The recent popularity of 3D IC technology stems from its enhanced performance capabilities and reduced wirelength. However, wire congestion and thermal issues are exacerbated d...
— The X-architecture is a new integrated-circuit wiring technique in the physical design. Compared with the currently used M-architecture, which uses either horizontal or vertica...
