This paper looks at the CAD implications of possible new interconnect technologies. We consider three technologies in particular: three dimensional ICs, carbon nanotubes as a repl...
Microfluidic biochips are revolutionizing many areas of biochemistry and biomedical sciences. Several synthesis tools have recently been proposed for the automated design of bioch...
Power integrity simulation for system-on-package (SoP) based modules is a crucial bottleneck in the SoP design flow. In this paper, the multi-layer finite difference method (M-FDM...

In this paper we propose a novel parameterized macromodeling technique for analog circuits. Unlike traditional macromodels that are only extracted for a small variation space, our...
Interrupt behaviors, especially the external ones, are difficult to verify in a microprocessor design project in that they involve both interacting hardware and software. This pap...
Pattern matching is essential to a wide range of applications such as network intrusion detection, virus scanning, etc. Pattern matching algorithms normally rely on state machines...
An effective method for focusing optimization effort on the most important parts of a design is to examine those elements on the critical path. Traditionally, the critical path is...

Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are innovative circuit primitives that extract secrets from physical characteristics of integrated circuits (ICs). We present PUF designs that...
With increasing time-to-market pressure and shortening semiconductor product cycles, more and more chips are being designed with library-based methodologies. In spite of this shif...
