Modeling heterogeneous SoCs with SystemC: a digital/MEMS case study
Designers of SoCs with non-digital components, such as analog or MEMS devices, can currently use high-level system design languages, such as SystemC, to model only the digital par...

Constraint driven I/O planning and placement for chip-package co-design
System-on-chip and system-in-package result in increased number of I/O cells and complicated constraints for both chip designs and package designs. This renders the traditional ma...
