The progress of GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) technology opens a new avenue for boosting computing power. This work is an attempt to exploit GPU for accelerating VLSI circuit opt...
This paper presents a new solution for combining technology mapping with placement, coupling the two into one phase. The original aspects of our work are the use of libraryless ma...
Timing closure problems occur when timing estimates computed during logic synthesis do not match with timing estimates computed from the layout of the circuit. In such a situation...

An energy optimization is proposed that addresses the nontrivial digital contribution to power and impact on performance in high-speed mixed-signal circuits. Parallel energy and b...
—Nanoscale integrated circuits are becoming increasingly sensitive to radiation-induced transient faults (soft errors) due to current technology scaling trends, such as shrinking...
