We discover significant value-dependent programming energy variations in multi-level cell (MLC) flash memories, and introduce an energy-aware data compression method that minimize...
In many designs, the worst-case-delay path may never be exercised or may be exercised infrequently. For those designs, a strategy of optimizing a circuit for the worst-case condit...

The flip-chip package provides a high chip-density solution to the demand for more I/O pads of VLSI designs. In this paper, we present the first routing algorithm in the literatur...
Power gating is one of the most effective ways to reduce leakage power. In this paper, we introduce a new relationship among Maximum Instantaneous Current, IR drops and sleep tran...
This work is motivated by the strong demand of reliability enhancement over flash memory. Our objective is to improve the endurance of flash memory with limited overhead and witho...
