Models of simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) are currently playing a central role in the connection between circuit design and chip fabrication communitie...
Abstract—We present a silicon neuron that uses shunting inhibition (conductance-based) with a synaptic rise-time to achieve synchrony. Synaptic rise-time promotes synchrony by de...
Established software development processes focus on delivering software within time and budget according to a set of requirements. However, practical experiences show that neither...
In the last few years, the University of Aveiro, Portugal, has been offering several distance learning courses over the Web, using e-learning platforms. Experience showed that dif...
Advanced process technologies call for a proactive consideration of process variations in design to ensure high parametric timing yield. Despite of its popular use in almost any h...
