Most existing dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) schemes for multiple tasks assume an energy cost function (energy consumption versus execution time) that is independent of the task ch...
Power Gating is effective for reducing leakage power. Previously, a Distributed Sleep Transistor Network (DSTN) was proposed to reduce the sleep transistor area by connecting all ...
Deploying multiple supply voltages (multi-Vdds) on one chip is an important technique to reduce dynamic power consumption. In this work we present an optimality study for resource...
As the technology node advances into the nanometer era, via-open defects are one of the dominant failures. To improve via yield and reliability, redundant-via insertion is a highl...
