Dual threshold technique has been proposed to reduce leakage power in low voltage and low power circuits by applying a high threshold voltage to some transistors in non-critical p...
In Deep Sub-Micron (DSM) designs, performance will depend critically on the latency of long wires. We propose a new synthesis methodology for synchronous systems that makes the de...

This paper presents a logic synthesis tool called BETSY (BIST Environment Testable Synthesis) for synthesizing circuits that achieve complete (100%)fault coverage in a user specif...
Most security models explicitly (or implicitly) include the tranquillity principle which prohibits changing the security level of a given piece of information. Yet in practical sy...
Mixed Vt has been widely used to control leakage without affecting circuit performance. However, current approaches target the combinational circuits even though sequential elemen...
