The speedup over a microprocessor that can be achieved by implementing some programs on an FPGA has been extensively reported. This paper presents an analysis, both quantitative a...

In this paper, we investigate the problem of repeater insertion for low power under a given timing budget. We propose a novel repeater insertion algorithm to compute the optimal r...
VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
Resolution enhancement techniques (RET) such as optical proximity correction (OPC) and phase-shift mask (PSM) technology are deployed in modern processes to increase the fidelity ...

In the nanometer VLSI technology, the variation effects like manufacturing variation, power supply noise, temperature etc. become very significant. As one of the most vital nets...
