In this paper, we present a novel flip-chip routing algorithm for package-board co-design. Unlike the previous works that can consider only either free- or pre-assignment routing,...
Post-silicon validation has become an essential step in the design flow of today's complex integrated circuits. One effective technique that provides real-time visibility to ...
Post-silicon processor debugging is frequently carried out in a loop consisting of several iterations of the following two key steps: (i) processor execution for some duration, fo...

In this paper we introduce a new method of performing direct solution of the harmonic balance Jacobian. For examples with moderate number of harmonics and moderate to strong nonli...
This paper describes a function-based timing-driven optimization technique for the synthesis of multi-level logic circuits. Motivated by the principles of parallel prefix computat...
Metal-only ECO realizes the last-minute design changes by revising the photomasks of metal layers only. This task is challenging because the pre-injected spare cells are limited b...
Don't-care conditions provide additional flexibility in logic synthesis and optimization. However, most work only focuses on the gate level because it is difficult to handle ...
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...
